Feedwind RSS Aggregator

[Rob Bedeaux]

Feedwind offers a very slick RSS aggregator that you can use via the Code Element. Using their tool, I was able to aggregate Let's Play Hockey, USA Hockey and Minnesota Hockey in one feed and customize the look and feel of it all through their easy to use interface. You can see an example of it running on the Farmington Youth Hockey homepage. Below is the code sample behind it.
