Going live again, and this time I’m building a new curated content board to manage all the blogs/newsletters/podcasts/general feeds that I want to keep up with,
An interesting post in Reddit prompted this, and it's reminded me that I really miss having one single place to keep up with all my content. (RIP Google Reader)
I think it's possible to build something like this in Trello! Especially using Zapier as it has an RSS feed reading action.
Ideally, I'm going to build something that:
1) gives me an easy way to submit a link to "watch" (might use PixieBrix to create a context menu to send something somewhere for Zapier to read)
2) whenever something new is posted on that url, it creates a card in a Trello board
3) possibly add labels to cards based on the type of content/source (i might get fancy with stuff here, or not, depending on what i’m feeling)
4) move that article to done by archiving or saving to another list
If you want to watch me build it, I'm going to livestream the process on Monday, Feb 7th, at 6pm CST/7pm EST/4pm PST . You can come back to this article to watch in the embedded video below, and it will also be available here as a recording afterwards if you can't make it live!
If you'd prefer, you can also get a reminder via text (if in US) and/or email so you know when it's happening. I'll also update with a comment in here, so if you watch this post, you should get an email notification when I post that.
I'll also create a new post after the fact with simple step-by-step instructions and a template so you can do it yourself if you don't want to watch me struggle for an hour! 😊
If you have any feature requests or other things you’d like to see in this board, comment below and I’ll do my best to incorporate them!
