RSS 2 PDF – Online RSS, Atom or OPML to PDF Generator

http://www.rss2pdf.com/index.php?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.itejas.com%2Fxmlsrv%2Frss2.php%3Fblog%3D2&src=rss

This is another nice tool for the day. I can print the posts of a blog or a site to a pdf document or even better I can create an OPML file of the feeds that I might want to read offline and print it to pdf document and then either save it print it out. This can come handy for research purposes as well.

Tom Churm, it is good work. Although the site is self explanatory, it is always handy if you can write down what it can do and also if there are any other uses of this site that you might have thought off.

Technical Blogcasts

John Howard : Blogcasts

http://www.blogcastrepository.com/Pages/RSS/The%20Blogcast%20Repository.xml

I am loving Blogcasts that Microsofties and others are doing. It definately helps small and medium sized enterprise engineer and administrators (ofcourse along with bigger organisations) to understand how the technology is implemented. Normally SME’s don’t have a lot of resources and money for training, so such engineers can take benefit of such blogcasts. Blogcasts on servers and infrastructure also gives a good idea on how servers and networks can be configured into bigger network environments.

I just got subscribed to Blogcastrepository.
