I've been working around using feed syndication on the desktop, in fact I've wrote a little app to syndicate art.gnome.org brand new atom format, to automatic install backgrounds from the site, Jilorio, (http://aruiz.synaptia.net/siliconisland/2006/05/jilorio_feed_fo.html) Gtk and metacity themes are also planned. While I was writting the app, I was wondering how could I centralize the feed agregation since I would use several feeds, and I've been thinking another uses of feeds around the desktop. So I think that a solution like this could rock to approach a "live desktop" which can change using the internet content. >Dodji. > >On 6/17/06, Yaron Tausky <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: >> Hi, >> I've been thinking about implementing a new framework, to abstract the >> use of various syndication formats on the desktop.
