CustomRSS Released

Welcome to the official blog for CustomRSS, a highly customizable Google Gadget for your personalized homepage. My name is David Gurak. I'm a software developer, and as you probably guessed I made CustomRSS.

I've always been big on "options" and customizing things, but unfortunately Google's official RSS gadget left a lot to be desired. I just wanted something with more color and flexibility. So I did what any developer would do and made my own!

You can find the official page and gadget link for CustomRSS here.

My friends and I have been using this gadget for over a year, but it was previously coded in PHP and therefore required that I host it myself. So last night I recoded it entirely in one tidy .xml file so that it could be hosted on Google Code...problem solved!

Anyway, I don't know how much I'll update this blog, but everyone's Grandma has one, so I figured CustomRSS should, too.

Thanks for reading, hope you enjoy CustomRSS!
