Hindi Song | Feed My Inbox Delivers Blogs as Email Messages

feed-inbox SendMeRSS, RSS Forward, FeedBurner Mail and FeedBlitz are some popular blog-to-email services that let you read RSS feeds as email messages without requiring a news reader.

Now there’s a new player in the game called FeedMyInbox which works more or less the same as above mentioned services but offers some distinct advantages:

For instance, you may supply the address of a website that doesn’t have feeds (e.g. google.com) and Feed My Inbox will automatically suggest related feeds like the official Google blog, Google News, etc.

And incase a page is associated with multiple feeds (say, CNN or Yahoo! News), you’ll get a list of options to choose from – you can either select one or multiple feeds and they’ll come to you as an email digest with all that news that was published the previous day.

Nick Francis of Feed My Inbox says that "each time a user enters a site that cannot find a feed, our team gets an email. We go check it out for ourselves to try and attach a feed to that site if applicable so that anyone entering that site in the future gets a successful message."

Hindi Song | Translate & Subscribe to Blogs Feeds Written in Foreign Languages with Mloovi

blog languages growthA Technorati report suggested that only 36% of the blog posts are written in English while the rest are published in Japanese, Chinese, Italian and other languages.

While this data may be slightly old, it does hint at the multilingual nature of blogosphere and how we miss majority of the published content by limiting subscriptions only to RSS feeds that are written in English.

Now if you like to expand your daily information sources and read feeds published in foreign languages, Mloovi could be an ideal service for you.

1. Mloovi translates blog feeds from one language to another using Google Translate.

2. The translated version is available as a feed so people can directly subscribe to it in any news reader.

Founder Mike Robinson says that Mloovi is also available as a widget for blog publishers - this will help non-English speaking visitors to directly subscribe your blog in their own native language without using language translation.

For instance, here are links to this feed in Hindi, Russian, Korean, Chinese and Arabic. You only get partial summaries because of Google Translate API limitations but they should still be good enough for getting a basic idea about the full post.
