Product Description:

The FeedBot browser toolbar bookmarklets are JavaScript browser tools that help you find, link, and view your favorite RSS newsfeeds right in your web browser, with no additional apps or plug-ins. Just click the appropriate Bookmarklet while visiting your favorite sites, and FeedBot does the rest.

There are 3 different FeedBot Bookmarklets:

FeedBot.add - If you have clicked on an RSS news feed link (your browser is now displaying XML gibberish) clicking the FeedBot.add bookmarklet will instantly display the feed on the FeedBot.org viewer page.

FeedBot.link - If You are visiting your favorite site and can't find the link to the RSS news feed on the page, clicking the FeedBot.link bookmarklet will scour the page, put a FeedBot icon next to any likely news feeds, and modify the link to display on the FeedBot viewer page when clicked.

FeedBot.find - If After clicking the FeedBot.link Bookmarklet, a link to your favorite site's news feed wasn't found on the page. FeedBot.find queries Feedster and displays any likely RSS/XML news feeds it finds. (click FeedBot.link to view the found feeds)

FeedBot Troubleshooting ReportIs FeedBot still in business? - Version: 1.0, 11/8/2004 11:42AM PST

ActionAmerica.org

Is FeedBot still in business? I have tried several times a day, for several days, to download this product with multiple browsers, to no avail. 'feedbot.org' appears to be found in the DNS tables, however not only does the download page not load, but their home page doesn't load either. Safari doesn't time out in the normal 60 seconds, on those pages, either, but does finally time out after around 30 minutes. It sounds like FeedBot might be a good product, but who can tell?
