Pretty RSS Feeds

lastsplash (a11n)

This plugin improves the default in-browser view of feeds to make them user-friendly. It makes it easier for human readers and adds a link to Aboutfeeds.com to introduce new users to feeds.

The plugin uses pretty-feed.xsl to transform the feeds.

How does this work?

It adds a stylesheet to apply a visual transformation to the default feed view. The stylesheet adjusts the default in-browser feed view to provide information about what a feed is and how they work.

Are there any limitations?

From the developer of the pretty-feed stylesheet:

Styling the feed prevents the browser from automatically opening a newsreader application. This is a trade off, but it’s a benefit to new users who won’t have a newsreader installed, and they are saved from seeing or downloaded obscure XML content. For existing newsreader users, they will know to copy-and-paste the feed URL, and they get the benefit of an in-browser feed preview.
