Super easy SharePoint RSS/ATOM reader
Posted on October 6, 2006, under Web Dev/Tech.
I happened to stumble upon George Tsiokos’ Windows SharePoint Services RSS (WSS-RSS) RSS/ATOM reader today – awesome! His use of XLST to convert RSS feeds to a native Windows SharePoint Services DataViewWebPart (DWP) file makes it possible for any Portal or Team Site administrator to add RSS feeds to their SharePoint pages.
You don’t even need to download a utility! Just use the form on his blog post to generate the DWP file that you use to import into SharePoint as a WebPart. The whole process takes seconds.
Thanks George!!

I would like to see the xsl code. I found a few links that alledgedly point to it, but they are referred to a blog entry that doesn’t contain the xsl.
Anybody know where I can find it?

I guess this is a moot point since sharepoint supports rss directly.

Jeff, you’re right. This post was written back before I had worked with SharePoint 2007 / WSS 3.
