Feed Renderer is a little project I’ve been working on that basically emulates the main idea of Popurls.com using SimplePie. Basically I’m just playing around with the concept (it is in no way ready for prime time). I want to add an ajax updater so each feed can be updated independently.
SimplePie is an RSS and Atom reading object written in PHP. It’s pretty easy to use and really makes a project like this straightforward and simple.
Also, the function doRelativeDate was written by Garrett Murray (http://graveyard.maniacalrage.net/etc/relative/)
Source code for this project is available upon request.
