For those unfamiliar with it, Tabbloid is a kind of feed aggregator that display your feeds in a newspaper format.
It’s meant to be a reader but I tested it out using feeds from my various web nodes, just to see what it’s like.
I just found the link in my inbox and am impressed to see it’s pulled articles from all of the feeds I entered and compiled into a fairly well put-together PDF.
So, it obviously works, but beyond that it also provides an astonishing ego boost (I’m always inordinately entertained by my own writing).
Anyway, for those considering using it, I recommend it. It has obvious advantages over other web-based readers – I use Netvibes, which i like – and is a nifty piece of kit.
For those as self-absorbed as I am, I also recommend it.
Here’s my edition (in 2meg+ PDF format):
Hey Robin, if you or your readers are interested, I’m working on a free software (open source) service based on the Tabbloid output. It doesn’t send out automatic emails yet, but the code is available for anyone who fancies a little more control over the final PDF. Click my name for a demo.

It’s a similar service.
