Hey....those scrollie things are cool.

Wow,

What will you come up with next?  I am not saying I will be successful at this but I am going in to try.....I am sure you have given me just enough rope to hang myself......

Hey Sally, they're really easy to setup too.  Check out feedfuze.com if interested.  :-)

Julie - haha.  That wasn't my idea here or intent!!  LOL~

You page looks way cool I love it!:)  What a way to organize everything.

OMG!  Will there be classes on this?  I don't know how you continue to build all of this good stuff for us!  Simply amazing, Thank you :)

I think that some of these add ons are neat looking but not as user friendly......I like a more clean and simple page......

I think that when a page looks so much different from the others that more people will just shy away from it a little due to the scariness of new things......

Just a thought.......could be so wrong to...usally am......lol.......

Brad when I met with Steve from Google, he told me I can now RSS feed my Google Alerts. That was exciting as my inbox gets so full of Google Alerts. I will check this out too.

Hi Brad-I do wonder if you ever sleep and if you do what kind of wild dreams you must have. Another bookmarked post for Pat. Thank you for all you do. Think we could work on all the proxy errors. A ton of them in the last few days. But it still is a awesome place with an amazing amt of education. I hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving & the rest of the holiday season is as wonderful as you. ;-)

Thanks for explaining this a little more to us non tech geeks.  I appreciate it and have bookmarked it for future reference...

Oh my,  yet another great tool.  I am going to have to check that out.  Have a great weekend.

Hey Brad: I have decided that between your posts and Jeff's, you could both keep me busy reading, absorbing, and learning new stuff. My gosh! Love it though...that's MY thing. ;-)

This is a great tool, I just need to figure out how to get it on proper with my site. The tools I think are wonderful, they really are coming up with some wonderful technology.

Man... I didn't even make your read list.  I'm bummed now [going back to the lab to figure out what I can do to make Brad want to read my blog...]

Excellent...I love it...now I have even more stuff to keep track of:)

Very cool thanks for sharing ideas that I don't have time to look for.

Looks really cool. Wonder if I could do that?

Chris - thanks, it's just a newer and different way of using the RSS feed readers that you see on the sides of many members Blogs.  This one allows you to pull feeds from multiple sites, and then eliminate any specific articles you don't want to show up on there. 

The other RSS readers can't do that.  These were just a couple samples I put together for this post.  :-)

Frances - if you need a class, you got it.  But first, just go the site and check it out, you might find it's easier than you think.  It's RSS which stands for Really Super Simple!  :-)) 

This is AMAZING!! I'm not sure where to begin with this...but it's pretty much a blogging college education in a box post! Did I say that it is AMAZING?? I'm impressed...as usual. :-) ~GBU~

This looks like a pretty neat tool, I would never think about something like this, but I try really hard to use these ideas to the best of my ability.

Pretty Cool Brad.  I am going to check it out.  I love tools that help my productivity.  I love my feedreader too, I just need to be in it more often....time, time, time.  Email, I think it's a very outdated mode of communication and in many cases is ineffective for me as a first point entry level contact, better as a confirmation point. 

Anyway, sorry ,I digress and am sleepy.  Thank you.

Confession time. I have never figured out how to properly setup an RSS feed for my web site or blogs. I'm a total geek, but I just can't grasp what is probably a fairly simple process.

I think as long as I keep dropping in your blog that I will learn everything I need to know to have a web presence.

...if only I have time to implement/execute the stuff that you share with us.

Amazing!

OK Brad - How'd you add the localism badge on the top right?

Bob Woods has really done some innovative work in putting together FeedFuze. I just need to think about what to combine in order to make it an effective real estate marketing tool.

Love FeedFuze! Many thanks Brad for keeping me in the know.

Very cool Brad!! I can see many uses for this stuff and will be checking it out further. It looks like a great way to provide very specific information to my customers. 

Also, everyone do remember that Active Rain Groups have feeds also.  You could fuze some of your favorite groups ... it's not limited to individuals.

WOW, What you have there is amazing. I signed up and I'm giving it a try. it is still searching but should be a fun thing, once I fully understand the tool itself. Thanks for sharing Brad. You really are amazing with all the stuff you bring foreword. Now if I just understood it better,lol.

Not sure if its just me, but the pics that you have say that internet explorer can't open the site....maybe something is wrong with the links???

Ok you have LOST your mind.

Missy - haha!  It was your daughter who created that!  LOL~  :-)

Hey Todd - this is not an add-on, it's a feed reader and syndication tool.  You should research it a bit, it might change the way you think about RSS feeds and the business they can generate you.  This is not just a fun toy or widget, it's something many are using in their 2009 business plans to provide content to their regular readers and new traffic. 

PS. This is also not a new thing, RSS has been around for a while now.  Don't be afraid of new things either, don't let new things create a fear in you. :-)

Brad when I met with Steve from Google, he told me I can now RSS feed my Google Alerts. That was exciting as my inbox gets so full of Google Alerts. I will check this out too.

Missy - I hadn't thought of that, what a great idea.  I'll go set that one up right now.  I get a ton of Google Alerts on many different keywords and phrases.  I also use Google Reader so an RSS feed may be a great solution and management tool.  I'll also add it to my Feedfuze account now.  Thanks for the tip.  :-)

I still have soooo much to learn....

I saw this post of yours before, but came back again. This is cool - as we can make a post just of our posts. Really cool.

I had heard of FeedFuze but I hadn't had a chance to play around with it yet.  As always, thanks.

RSS means Really Stumps Sara!  I think I need to get someone to teach me all this stuff, but it looks very interesting.

Just posted one on my blog and my website.  Looks great.THANKS!!

Brad - As the Joker asked rhetorically, "Where does he get those GREAT toys from?" Thanks for sharing! 

How can I that?

WOW - didn't realize I had this many comments, it's been tough without the email notifications, or comments showing up on the my home page.  We are working 24/7 to get all these issues corrected.  I'll be back after I unload my email in box.

FYI - Feedfuze is really simple to join, setup and use.  Just go to their site and see.  I wanted to post this to see what kind of response I'd get before I went into the details of how to create a feedfuze, and put it in a container like the ones displayed in this post.  Looks like there is some interest, so I may do a more detailed post on the "How-To" shortly.  Thanks for all the comments, and for your patience getting into this post.  :-)

I've added a few feedfuzes (my personal secrets and favs) to the top container in this post, for those of you who catch this comment, you'll see where I learn and get a lot of this type of stuff.  I'm really no genius at this, I just read a lot of Blogs and sites using google reader and my new feedfuze reader.  There is so much great information in these Blogs, marketing, SEO, tips, tools, new technology etc.  You can set these up to bring the information and news you're looking for right into your computer and up on your screen.  I rarely have to go hunt for new information or news regarding anything I want to know about.  Secret: You must be able to read hundreds of posts at a glance per day, hence my title here...

1000 posts in one. :-)

Feedfuze?  Yet another thing to capture my attention!  Looks very cool, indeed.

Holy moly !!! super cool.  You rock.  Looks like another homework assignment for Chris and Stephanie !!!

Brad, this looks like something that I may have some fun with, I am gonna bookmark to look at later!

That's pretty cool I set mine up. Feed of blogs by Logan Real Estate Agents. There are all sorts of ways I'm going to integerate this tool on my websites...

Brad: I don't get this.... I just don't get it.  I went to the site and I don't see a really helpful spot  showing the how-to use/setup, etc on Feedfuze.  Is there one that I missed?

Thanks

Secret: You must be able to read hundreds of posts at a glance per day,

Hmm.  FeedFuze frenzy.  What's the next step. Brad?  A Vulcan mind meld with your computer?!  :)

I need to spend more time looking into syndication and RSS feeds.  This is one of the things on my to do list.

This is a great post - I'll definitely keep it around for reference in the future.

Best, Dan

I've enjoyed getting familiar with all these applications via the DOMUS webinar. It's always great to know I can find so much of enrichment here on your posts. amazing stuff...I'm finally slowing down and plan to get to all this 'homework'! Much gratitude, as always, for rain, rain, rain...You are just the Big Brad Unbrella ;-)

Used this today - looks good but doesn't show up in the RSS feed. (check it out for yourself by clicking above.)  I'm still using it on my website.  But it won't show up if someone is subscribed via e-mail.

Oh my!  What in the world will you come up with next?  You ar a wild man!  This one is way over my little newbie head...I will come back latr! Ha ha

Sounds like something I should try. Currently using Bloglines, or receiving posts directly to e-mail but something easier would be nice. ~Rita

Active Brad... pretty cool... but what am I looking at.  I am not sure if I am lost or just tired. Maybe a slight explanation to what this could be used for?  What they are? I feel stupid, because I don't really get what this is used for and or how.  thanks

Brad... Thanks again for another great tool. I have to get this on my wish list

So glad to read the comments from people that don't get it, other than me.  I know, I know....you are shocked that I, oh great techie one, am finally stumped, right?  ROTFL. I'm having hubby check this out.  It you say it's needed for my 2009 business plan, it must be so! 

Answer this, oh wise one. Why do some brains function on such technical levels and others, not so much?  Maybe my brain is just too full of "charm"? LOL. 

Brad - Do you know how people are using this in their business?  I'm still trying to understand ...

Oh man, you are like Santa with a huge bag of goodies! I am just glad to have the "BOOKMARK" feature so I can learn most of the cool tips!.

The only thing I am concerned about now is: "I'll be back after I unload my email in box." I think we are all going to experience an avalanche of email notices! No worries, a cup of coffee and a plate of Christmas cookies and a little time at the keyboard should take care of everything!

Very good. We can't get enough of these gadgets.

Thanks for the tip here, Brad.  Appreciate your constant stream of tech tips and tools.  Just used your widget posts to add a couple to mine.

Information overload!!!! But thanks a great use of a bookmark. The blog that keeps on giving!

AB

Feedfuze is a great application. We spent quite a bit of time talking about it on the social media webinar. I have yet to set one up but have some thoughts on different ways it can be used on my blogs. THanks for passing this along.

Jeff

Brad-o-blogging- Guru - you have my creative juices stirring.  I love reading your posts and enjoy learning all that you share.  Thanks!

Sorry everyone, this post wasn't abandoned, but until we got the email notifications working again, I wasn't sure (like all of you) where and what posts were getting comments.  I have been going back through posts just trying to keep up with questions and comments.  LOL~  Now I'm finally back here and reading your comments. 

BTW - Comment notifications are working now, but we are still working on many other issues.  Should be better than new shortly...  :-)

Hi Brad-I do wonder if you ever sleep and if you do what kind of wild dreams you must have. Another bookmarked post for Pat. Thank you for all you do. Think we could work on all the proxy errors. A ton of them in the last few days. But it still is a awesome place with an amazing amt of education. I hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving & the rest of the holiday season is as wonderful as you. ;-)

Hi Pat - we are working on those proxy errors.  All the glitches and issues you may be experiencing now are in an effort to kill those errors out once and for all.  Thanks for hanging in there, we'll be good as new very soon...  :-)

So the comment issues are resolved?  That is an excellent thing to hear!  I have been lost without it!

Yes Jeremy, it's working again now - that's how I knew you commented here, but we are still working on many other issues so I gotta run buddy, have a great week.  :-)

Hi Brad - Thanks for showing this application of feedfuze.  I must admit I haven't done much with it since the webinar, but your application got some thoughts going.  Thanks again for your hard work!

Vincent

Looks really cool. Wonder if I could do that?

Maria - of course you can.  Anyone can do these, they're free and pretty easy to setup. I have done 4 since this post and put them on different sites.  I even tested one on my outside website to be sure it worked.

You are an amazing wealth of knowledge.  Many thank yous for the effort......

feedfuze eh?  Okay, you have sparked my interest, and now I need to go out there and see if I have the wherewithal to create something like this.  I really like it.

Tim - thanks, I apreciate your comment, happy holidays! 

Troy - you can do it, I know you can. Let me know if you need help. :-)

For those of you needing more assistance with this, I am starting a new video tutorial series and feedfuze will be included.  I Hope to have it started and up and running by the first part of the new year.  I'm working out all the details of the video training series now.  I may also be starting the "ActiveRain Webinar Training Series" in January as well.  I Got my plate full for sure.  Happy Holidays.  :-)
