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 ³ÉÈËÂÛ̳ 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 (³ÉÈËÂÛ̳ 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.
