David Davies: ServicesThis is where I put posts about all my Radio web services and other XML-RPC and SOAP procedures.(Untitled)- February 9, 2002 You must take a look at Greg Smith's latest project. He's working in an area that interests me greatly, Filemaker Manila via RSS. He's done some terrific work on this latest site combining multiple FMP database search results using RSS as a common output format. What's particularly nice is the thought he's put into this demo web site with a well thought-out interface with explanatory notes. One tip, try searching fro 'smith' to get started. Check it out!http://david.davies.name/weblog/categories/services/2002/02/09.html#a145 (Untitled)- February 6, 2002 Of course you'll most likely want a more open web service than just entering a Manila message number. Manila site name, membership info, etc. That's no problem. I just wanted you to see my quick proof-of-concept first. I'll put out some scripts tomorrow. Now, it's after 3am so that's enough for one night.

There's just too much to read and life's too short. Sometimes I want to get some specific information fast. And maybe another time I want a standing filter of all my feeds so that I can quickly see the latest news on a particular topic. Well now thanks to radio's web services I can filter all my RSS feeds and only look at those items that match a keyword. <%params = "cancer";...http://david.davies.name/weblog/categories/services/2002/02/05.html#a136 (Untitled)- February 5, 2002 Today I released my first public web service. It allows you to include some or all of your pictures in a weblog post or story. It kind of supersedes the old picture gallery script as you can now have a picture gallery wherever you want, including in a template if you so wish! This gives the user a lot more flexibility over how to display groups of images. If you're not ready to install the web service on your own site then try it via mine!
