I would also add http://feeds.feedburner.com/HNWatrcoolr

It is the last 30 HN stories that made it to the top of the front page.


Cool stuff! Also recommending Feedity - http://feedity.com (shameless plug). Just give it the webpage and build a custom RSS feed on-the-fly.


Alright, brilliant. Now which users are the must follows?


See this is the good thing about hacker news IMHO. You don't follow users. You follow intelligent discussion and argument.

I think it'd be a sad day if everyone started following particular users. Just my 2c.


I'm in complete agrement with you. That was the premise for building this tool. This is the first draft and will focus on giving more details about comments and discussions.


Great point.

From now on, I am now following axod.

:)


Thanks, I just built this cause I wanted a way to get comments that where in response to mine, but I could add that feature.


"... Hacker News feeds ..."

Hey twism, this works a charm with wget (fails loading for Fox3 for some reason). The ability to get comments the process them later makes this a very useful tool extract your own data. Thanks for this neat hack.


I can now import my News.YC comments into Friendfeed, thank you.


Excellent. I can now have a feed to keep track of all replies to my comments. Thank you!


You're welcome... not entirely all your replies, just replies starting from yesterday and not more than 3 days old (can be adjusted).


Feature Requests:

1. Points! (how many each comment has)

2. Can you do the stories on the front page with points too?


Points added... Stories on the front page, coming right up.


Awesome, Can you email me when you get it done? I would like to personally thank you plus get your permission to use these...

Very cool. I always love a good, simple solution for a simple problem.


Do these feeds respect the 'Delay' feature announced yesterday?

Yes, it does.


Beautiful. I just added the feed to my Snackr feed reader. The result is pretty nice.


THANK YOU!


not a problem... feedback or feature requests will be appreciated


I just tried

    http://ycfeeds.com/feed/replies-to-user?user=jamesbritt

and got

    500 Application Exception

    Java heap space

    Stack trace:

    java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space


I took care of the memory leak. Should be fine now.


Sorry... still working out a few kinks.


Cool; I will try it again. This looks very promising.

Could you make the text on the front page bigger?
