RSS News Feeds from Multiple Sources #4

Open digittao opened 9 years ago

digittao commented 9 years ago

I created some 20 RSS feeds rich with content on this movement:

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1cZP_AXhWsBM1g6s4VXGb_PruOmrOt61nHrXSPTTvNiQ/edit?usp=sharing

Notes:

(1) Row in green colors are main stream news agents, in yellow are the two student parties initiated the movement so count them as opinion leaders too.

(2) I concentrated on Facebook pages and groups as the official news agents don't have RSS link on their official web site, and I don't have knowledge on Instagram.

(3) I added pages and groups from both confronting parties so everyone has a fair chance to voice out

(4) The RSS text may need some rinsing, http://pipes.yahoo.com/ is a good tool for that, but it needs some RegEx knowledge which is beyond my knowhow.

I hope the task will be taken over by some capable hands.

I have tried to setup the RSS feed using Yahoo Pipe. However the encoding for those feeds from Facebook is incorrect. That make yahoo pipe show invalid character for Chinese problem. I can't find any solution to fix the encoding problem yet...
