Get a free RSS widget for your site


This one is for those of you, who have a website and would like to display the contents of a RSS feed on that website. It does not really matter if you want to display your own feeds on a different part of your blog or feeds from other websites.FeedFlash is a nice service that takes feed urls and places them in a nice looking and scrollable widget that can be embedded into websites.

The cool thing is that these widgets are fully customizable, including colors, heading, height and width and so on. I’d say that changing the size of the widget is the most important feature as long as you plan to put it into a sidebar. You provide the address to your feed and the service lets you customize the widget with a preview. After that the code can be copied and added to the code of your website.

An alternative for Wordpress would be the RSS-Import plugin which can be configured to display only headlines or headlines and content on your Wordpress blog.

Thanks to Ollie Parsley from TechJuicer for mentioning this service.
