NY Times Beta Testing RSS Service
By the Betanews Staff | Published July 12, 2006, 1:20 PM
The New York Times is holding a closed beta test for a new site it calls "My Times," which will enable users to create a personal news page from a variety of RSS feeds. USA Today and Newsweek have launched similar sites through a partnership with Newsgator.
My Times users can add feeds from the New York Times itself, as well as a number of third party blogs and Web sites. It's not clear if the site will support the addition of any RSS feed, or only those chosen by the Times. The company did not say when the new service would launch, but is inviting readers to be notified when it's ready.
They should implement our RSS softwae with their service. www.mightyticker.com

|Should be called "My Leaks"

|What over-complicating & testing needs to be done for that? It must be to make sure payments are correctly received & that for-pay content is not viewed freely.
I would likely not be interested in receiving all news filtered through a conspiracist/liberal/& not-always thoroughly-vetting & diligent rag that sometimes passes glossing fluff pieces as expert insider tidbits. I will read their articles from time to time, but that's about it.

|Since you're not an AM radio personality, maybe you'd want to engage your brain before you type? Just a thought...

|My brain is fully engaged... I choose not to assist the NYT as this company is not deserving of my assistance. Maybe if the NYT had a small shread of credibility I would reconsider. I will not hold my breath in anticipation that this will occur. I would surely pass out from lack of oxygen.
