The whole idea of releasing the book free in internet is a great idea indeed. Like me, many other bloggers also blogging only because they read it for free, and thus make a huge publicity of this book. Though I agree, it is really a great book.

FeedPHP is going to be the largest PHP News Source

FeedPHP is a free RSS aggregator which collects feed, parse and display the titles with a link back to the original source. This is one top news source for PHP and relevant technologies. This website is currently displaying news feeds from different fields like PHP, PHP Blogs, MySQL, PostgreSQL, Ruby, Java and others. No doubt, this is going to be the largest PHP news source in near future.

The whole site is a single page with mod_rewrite tricks. For performance, the contents are cached for several minutes, otherwise my site will be convicted for consuming excess bandwidth from those sites. Moreover, the site will be extremely slow for consuming remote contents frequently. Output buffering was used to serve the content quickly.

BDBlogs.net – The first Bangla Blog Aggregator

Recently I have visited a site www.bdblogs.net which aggregates the posts from various bangla bloggers website. The service is really cool. The display all the posts in this page. When someone clicks over any post, it will redirect to the original blog. I like this service very much. But I suggest some modifications

1. Lets display more than 10 posts per page
2. Lets display the authors name under each post

Today I have subscribed to their RSS and you will find all their latest posts in my blog, at the lower right corner.

Thanks for developing such a service.
