GreenCine Daily RSS feed now available as a full post
2004.09.30 . .
GreenCine rocks. I dropped NetFlix a while back when I heard that a bay area video rental alternative existed. GreenCine's web site has some interesting features like movie lists that are shared by it's members. This is a great way to find out what other people are watching.
They also have a blog and an excellent weekly newsletter. My rental queue grows by at least five movies every time they send me a newsletter. Excellent job on this. I hardly browse e-newsletters anymore but GreenCine is getting this right.
As an RSS geek, I subscribed to their blog right away. Too bad it's a Movable Type weblog which defaults to feeds that only contain the first sentence or two of a post, requiring subscribers like me to visit the site to read the entire post. Ugh. Give me the whole thing in my news reader please.
So, I asked my buddy, Canton for an account on his Movable Type system. He immediately gave me an account so I got to work. On a Google search I discovered this page, which explained how to modify the RSS template in Movable Type to provide full post RSS feeds. I tried it and it worked. So, I sent the URL and my plea to the editor, David Hudson, at GreenCine and now, I'm happy say, GreenCine now has a full post RSS feed.
Hi, Donovan,
A few months ago, you pointed me to your very helpful how-to on changing the set-up for the RSS feed. I've followed your instructions there as closely as possible, and now, I'm crossing my fingers and hoping it all goes well. Either way, I do want to thank you - and to apologize for being so long about it. You know the drill: Several pans, several fires.
Thanks again,
David Hudson
Editor, GreenCine
