Chris, Thanks, the django community aggregator is built on top of the Universal Feed Parser. I figured out the zip codes function of my app.
What I can't figure out is why when I add a m2m model to my update_feeds.py does not work. As far as I can tell in the update_feeds doesn't access the Feed model and save it anywhere.
