I got some feedback from JoeSak today about the RSS feeds here on www.dotnetnukeblogs.com, the feeds were having the HTML formatting stripped out of the descriptions when they were built. I've removed that functionality so that all the HTML formatting should included with the feeds now.

It might take Feedburner a bit to catchup on this new formatting though.

So with the success of the website here at DotNetNukeBlogs.com we've branched out and started providing two new RSS feeds. One for Spanish DNN blog posts and one for Chinese DNN Blog posts. As we get other languages supported with new feeds we will setup categories for those as well. If you've been holding off submitting your feed because it isn't in english now is the time to add it!
Why DotNetNukeBlogs.com? Our goal is to be the premier aggregator of DotNetNuke related materials. DotNetNukeBlogs.com was started by DotNetNuke Core Team member Chris Hammond with the intention to provide a place for the leaders in the DotNetNuke Community to push their content to those needing it most, the users.
Stay tuned as we continue to grow. If you're a DotNetNuke Expert be sure to get your feed added into our aggregate system.
You can read more about us here.

So based on the fact that DNN is a worldwide phenomanon I should have planned for this in the beginning. Today I received the first non-english RSS feed for DotNetNukeBlogs.com. I am going to work today to get something setup for a way to handle these type of submissions. It will take me a day or two, but I will get something setup for the non-english speaking feeds to be aggregated here as well.

So the first month of DotNetNukeBlogs.com has been a good one. We are currently aggregating 16 different RSS feeds relating to DotNetNuke with over 450 blog posts! We'll be working on some more features for the site over the next couple of months, don't forget to check out our "Cool Stuff" page in which you can get some additions for your own websites!
We've had a few submissions so far that don't really fit within the realm of DNN and some that just don't have enough content. If you've submitted your feed yet don't see it being aggregated here yet, get some more content on your blog relating to DotNetNuke and then let us know so we can review it again for relevancy!

For the past few months I've been working on a project in my freetime (what free time) that I am proud to say has finally been launched!
Check it out at DotNetNukeBlogs.com. The goal of the site is to provide a single source providing links to the best DNN blog posts across the web.

Today is the day that DotNetNukeBlogs.com goes public! We'll be making some official announcements later today on various DNN and ASP.NET related sites, but for those of you who made it here early you can try the site out and let us know what you think!

Another quick site update tonight as we prepare for an official launch on Thursday July 3rd. I made some tweaks to the Engage: Publish module to better display content from an administration point of view with regards to the blog post approval process that we are utilizing here in the early stages of DotNetNukeBlogs.com.
I'm proud to announce that Lee Sykes and Mitchel Sellers have both signed up and added their very information DNN blog feeds to the collection here on DotNetNukeBlogs.com as well! Thanks to both of them for their great efforts in the DNN Community.

A big thanks to our fellow administration Cuong Dang for getting our new skin created and applied to the website this weekend. We've got a few more tweaks to make to the site/content and should be making some launch announcements here soon!

I spent some time tweaking Engage: Publish and the "Consumer" module that I've written for consuming RSS feeds. I noticed a problem with pulling in RSS Items by trying to compare date/times. So instead of consuming items based on the datetime, we're now looking to see if an item already exists based on the title of the item and the author id. Ultimately I think it will require modification to check for both dates and titles, but for now we can remove any items that show up because of a simple title change.
