Google, AOL and Start.com Let Users Add RSS Feeds

Posted on July 28, 2005

Google is allowing users to add RSS feeds to its personalized homepage service that so far has no name (like My Yahoo). Buzzhit provides an example of what feeds look like on Google. Bloggers are also reporting that AOL has launched the beta of a new service that lets users add their favorite feeds to a personalized start page. Search Engine Watch reports that Feedster is powering AOL's new RSS features.

And Microsoft also has a test going on at start.com. There is a feed search on start.com and you can add your favorite feeds by pressing the down arrow on the preview button in the top left-hand corner and then selecting "my feeds" and then "add feed." Yahoo has allowed users to add their own feeds at my.yahoo.com for a while now.
