Build a GSoC blog aggregator #29

Open Rupeshiya opened 6 years ago

Rupeshiya commented 6 years ago

I think there should also be a blog which contains the journey from start to end ,experience and suggestions for GSoC aspirants and for any other info we can contact GSoCer's of our college too. What do you think @palash25 ?

palash25 commented 6 years ago

Nice idea but every GSoCer writes their own blog, so writing or copy pasting articles for another blog leads to duplication of effort which I don't like.

I would like to suggest a few modifications to your idea. Instead of building a blog from scratch you might want to consider building a blog aggregator site that collects and archives blog from every GSoCer's RSS feed.

This seems more practical and doable and also automates the boring stuff. :wink:

Thanks for your contribution :smile: @Rupeshiya

Sounds great. Would be more helpful after a few months though. (When the students have a few blogs up on their website.) :+1:

And if we have successfully completed GSoC :laughing:

Rupeshiya commented 6 years ago

Definately we hope too.

Late to comment, but you can build a crawler and add the URLs of the RSS feeds to a file. Then set it whatever duration you want and it will fetch all those GSoC blogs per cycle and list them/update up on your aggregator whenever a new post is needed. You can have a look at planet.kde.org or dot.kde.org These are perfect and awesome working example of what you are looking for..
