12seconds.tv : Get Your Friends Updates Via RSS

12seconds.tv

Over the last few weeks I have been playing around with 12seconds.tv a lot and have to say its a fun little service.  Not gonna change the world or find a cure for cancer but a kool little service.

Once thing I didnt like was not having an rss feed to throw into google reader or on my friendfeed to know when a contact had updated.

So for that I went to Yahoo Pipes and the 12seconds API.  Armed with that and help from my buddy Olivier you now can get that information.  Its a simple feed with not a lot of information but it does what I need and that is updating me via rss.

note : all you need to do is go into the source code and take my username out unless you want my friends updates hehe.

enjoy and if you come up with or find something better please do let me know!

  • Cool, Jeff! A RSS feed is really useful.

    I like 12seconds, it is a fun little service. I wish there were a better way to connect users as quickly and as seamlessly as Twitter. Maybe one day we will be able to post 12second responses to our friends' posts, then have a visual map of those responses and their friends' responses and so on.
    Oh, and the ability to make videos private/public and block users.

    A girl can dream, can't she? ;)
