#Tip of the day from Journalism.co.uk – How to add a Delicious feed to a spreadsheet
July 21st, 2011Posted by Sarah Marshall in Handy tools and technology, Top tips for journalists
The Online Journalism Blog explains how to collaborate (or crowdsource) by combining Delicious and Google Docs.
In a Google Docs spreadsheet the formula =importfeed will pull information from an RSS feed and put it into that spreadsheet. Titles, links, datestamps and other parts of the feed will each be separated into their own columns.
When combined with Delicious, this can be a useful way to collect together pages that have been bookmarked by a group of people, or any other feed that you want to analyse.
You can follow the step-by-step guide by going to this link.
