RIAForge and Yahoo! Pipes

I’ve been wanting to add links to my RIAForge projects, I was aware of the RIAForge project list file (in XML) and thought that was a good option to easily add list of my projects to my blog (using the RSS Sidebar Widget in WordPress).

So, I checked out the project list file, and found that it wasn’t in RSS format; the RSS Sidebar Widget in WordPress only allows valid RSS or ATOM to be displayed, so it presented me with a small problem. Thanks to Yahoo! Pipes however, that problem was solved in no time!

I created the RIAForge Project List Pipe. It takes the URL to an RIAForge project list XML file, such as mine, and converts it into a valid RSS Feed!
