Reading through my blog roll this morning I came across an interesting post that was shared by Clint Ecker on Google Reader. It was about a neat (probably mostly useless but cool nontheless) service that will turn your RSS feeds into a printable PDF whose content resembles that of the style and layout of a newspaper.

An example of mine is below:

The site is called Feed Journal. I suppose the main advantage that I can see is that folks who commute and perhaps do not have the luxury of wireless access on the road, could print this out in the mornings and pretty much read it like a newspaper.

On a side note, it would be interesting to see all the coding in the backend to actually generate the PDF itself. From the looks of it, after a 10 second overview of the site, they are using ASP.NET as the middle-tier. I bet they could have done it much more efficiently had they used CF :-P
