Create a twitter list rss feed for your network

[Lexie Anne]

 I stumbled across this neat little trick. As you know networks have an rss feed box. I decided I wanted to add an rss of my twitter list for my network. Twitter just added this neat feature where you could make a list of tweeters. What I did was a create a twitter list that fits into my network and niche.

So all I do is add the url for my twitter list, and it creates an rss feed of my twitter list, that I can now put into my rss feed box on my network. go to the link below and paste the url of your twitter list to create the rss feed

then go to rss feed box and paste in the url add your tittle, and how many feeds you want to show. Note you can also add the rss feed of your twitter in the rss feed box.

Pretty awesome! I just added it to my network. I wish it was a little more aesthetically pleasing. Thanks for sharing.

Your own twitter account already has an rss feed, provided through twitter its, you can put that in your rss feed box.

to create a twitter list, go to your twitter account under search there should be something that says list you click on that and title it and make your own twitter list. you can add up to 500 people. Then once you make that list you can add it to a listorious is place where you can add your list to their database. You can't make a list there.

Is your list or anyone on your list private? That might affect whether the RSS works.

I have found that this solution at http://twiterlist2rss.appspot.com/ is quite flaky. More often than not, I just get a blank RSS feed. I suspect that the site is overloaded these days.

I have also tried using Yahoo Pipes. It is more robust, but I still get a blank feed once in a while.

Does anyone have a tried and true method to turn Twitter Lists into an RSS feed to use on a Ning site?

I tried this a while back. I don;t use it anymore, try http://jensocial.com she would know or someone there could give you a better way to do this.
