  • Specifications for Implementing Web Feeds in DLXS Kevin S
    Hawkins 1/5/2011 5:01:52 PM Page 1 of 5 * SCHOLARLY PUBLISHING OFFICE WHITEPAPER Specifications for implementing web feeds in DLXS Kevin S. Hawkins Executive Summary SPO uses DLXS to deliver nearly all of its publications online, but this software does not offer any functionality for web feeds (commonly called RSS feeds). The components of web feeds are reviewed, and recommendations are made for implementing Atom 1.0 web feeds in SPO publications using a script run during releasing which determines which content to push to the feed. Motivations Members of the editorial board of the Journal of Electronic Publishing (collid jep) and SPO staff have requested that web feed functionality be provided for SPO publications. This would allow end users to subscribe to feeds of not only serial content (the obvious use) but in theory any other collection to which content is added, especially on a regular basis. A feed could provide a single notice that a collection has been updated, perhaps with a table of contents (henceforth a small feed), or instead contain separate notices for each item added to the collection (a large feed). Components of a web feed A web feed operates with three necessary components: • a website that syndicates (or publishes) a feed • a feed standard being used by the website • the end user’s news aggregator (feed reader or news reader), which retrieves the feed periodically. A feed is an XML document containing individual entries (also items, stories, or articles). Syndicating a feed The content provider’s website often has buttons (icons called chicklets) to be used by the end user to add a feed to his or her news aggregator.

[2] An RSS document (which is called a "feed", "web feed", [3] or "channel") includes full or summarized text, plus metadata such as publishing dates and authorship. Web feeds benefit publishers by letting them syndicate content automatically. They benefit readers who want to subscribe to timely updates The RSS logo from favored websites or to aggregate feeds from many sites into one place. RSS feeds can be read Filename .rss, .xml using software called an "RSS reader", "feed extension reader", or "aggregator", which can be web-based, application/rss+xml desktop-based, or mobile-device-based. A Internet standardized XML file format allows the media type (Registration Being information to be published once and viewed by Prepared) [1] many different programs.

Towards devaluation of professional journalistic criteria La sindicación de contenidos en los agregadores de noticias: Hacia la devaluación de los criterios profesionales periodísticos Dr. Concha Edo is Professor in the Department of Journalism and Global Communication at the Complutense University of Madrid (Spain) ([email protected]) (https://orcid.org/0000-0001-6960-867X) Dr. Juan Yunquera is Assistant Professor in the Department of Journalism and Audio-visual Communication at the University Carlos III of Madrid (Spain) ([email protected]) (https://orcid.org/0000-0002-4062-1659) Dr. Helder Bastos is Professor in the Department of Communication and Information Sciences at the University of Porto ([email protected]) (https://orcid.org/0000-0002-6351-4610) ABSTRACT The growing expansion of Internet access and mass-scale usage of social networking platforms and search engines have forced digital newspapers to deal with challenges, amongst which are the need to constantly update news, the increasing complexity of sources, the difficulty of exercising their function as gatekeepers in a fragmented environment in which the opinions, biases and preconceptions of pundits, their followers, Twitter users, etc. has taken on a new and decisive weight and the mounting pressure to publish certain news items simply because they sell. They must also share audiences with aggregators devoted to the business of disseminating content produced by digital news publishers, blogs and RSS feeds, which is chosen on the basis of search engine algorithms, the votes of users or the preferences of readers.
