Create Customized RSS Feed Widgets Effortlessly

Tuesday, January 12, 2010

cyclur

An RSS feed widget is a great way to add interest to your blog or website by bringing in relevant content from outside sources. Cyclur is a customizable RSS feed widget that is a snap to set up and install.

To use Cyclur, all you have to do is enter in the feed URI,  set the colors so that the widget harmonizes with your website and then cut and paste the code to transfer the widget to your site.

The idea behind Cyclur isn’t exactly new-there are a variety of different sites that let you create RSS-feed widgets for your site, many of them with customization options. However, Cyclur stands out for being so completely customizable AND so easy to use. There’s no need to register or sign up for anything, and if you already know what feed you want to import, it takes literally about a minute to get everything set up.  If you know how to add feeds to an RSS feed reader, you can use Cyclur.
