To save others some time

I made an .opml file with the RSS feeds for all of us so far. I'll add to it as people continue to register their blogs.

If you want to use it, you can either right-click on the link and save-as, or let your browser open it, copy and paste the contents into a text file, and save it as an .opml file.

After that, you can import it into whatever blog reader you're using if it allows .opml imports. For Google Reader:
  1. Go to Reader Settings (it's a little cogwheel icon in the top right of the page for me, next to my logged in name);
  2. Click on Import/Export in the settings;
  3. Browse for and upload the file.
Google Reader will then pop you into your Subscriptions page after the file has uploaded, and if you want to change tags, you can. (They should import with a "Learn with CDLC" tag.)

(Save the time of the reader, right?)

PS: A selective .opml file wasn't hard to make - I just exported my Feedreader .opml, then deleted the non-Learn with CDLC feeds, as they're all arranged hierarchically in <outline> tags.

  1. No problem! I'm having trouble not playing with statistics for all the blogs (platform used, naming conventions) - I think I like spreadsheets too much.
