A beautifully done ,
For the I have run https://www.dailysnooze.com - mainly because I wanted a quick loading simple homepage for my browser, which included the Â鶹Éç headlines and weather. Long gone are the days of screen scraping the bbc news pages and now luckily we have access to some nice feeds!
Things have moved on a little and we now have a few extras based on backstage feeds:
- browser homepage (Â鶹Éç News and Weather)
I only just released the gadgets so thought I should share them a bit further. They are also available from the website itself.For the homepage the brief I have always stuck to is "quick loading and simple", and I like to think I have a good balance in my slightly biased opinion.
From the tech side of things the gadgets/homepage get their data from my
hosted DB and associated web services. I have an app running at home which
updates the server DB regularly with the feed information.
