What's the big deal? Well, I'm a big fan of <a href="http://webservices.amazon.com/onca/xml?Service=AWSECommerceService&AWSAccessKeyId=1JJAECP7T6ZA5DFVERG2&Operation=ItemSearch&Keywords=Wendell+Berry&ResponseGroup=Medium&SearchIndex=Books&Sort=relevancerank&Catalog=Books&SortBy=Best+Match&Style=http://xml.onfocus.com/amzn-rss.xsl&ContentType=text/xml">Wendell Berry</a> and <a href="http://webservices.amazon.com/onca/xml?Service=AWSECommerceService&AWSAccessKeyId=1JJAECP7T6ZA5DFVERG2&Operation=ItemSearch&Keywords=Craig+Thompson&ResponseGroup=Medium&SearchIndex=Books&Sort=relevancerank&Catalog=Books&SortBy=Best+Match&Style=http://xml.onfocus.com/amzn-rss.xsl&ContentType=text/xml">Craig Thompson</a>, of <a href="http://webservices.amazon.com/onca/xml?Service=AWSECommerceService&AWSAccessKeyId=1JJAECP7T6ZA5DFVERG2&Operation=ItemSearch&Keywords=Naguib+Mahfouz&ResponseGroup=Medium&SearchIndex=Books&Sort=relevancerank&Catalog=Books&SortBy=Best+Match&Style=http://xml.onfocus.com/amzn-rss.xsl&ContentType=text/xml">Naguib Mahfouz</a> and <a href="http://webservices.amazon.com/onca/xml?Service=AWSECommerceService&AWSAccessKeyId=1JJAECP7T6ZA5DFVERG2&Operation=ItemSearch&Keywords=New+Urbanism&ResponseGroup=Medium&SearchIndex=Books&Sort=relevancerank&Catalog=Books&SortBy=Best+Match&Style=http://xml.onfocus.com/amzn-rss.xsl&ContentType=text/xml">books about New Urbanism</a>... and now, with the help of PB's delicious feed-builder, I'll be notified whenever something new comes from any of these authors or meets the "New Urbanism" search criteria, so I can add them to my Amazon wish list... and I think that's pretty darn cool. Add that to Amazon's pre-existing wish list feeds, which let you monitor other people's wish lists for additions ( you can find a wish list's feed on its "home" page ), and I'm in heaven. <br /><br /> ( As a direct result of the feeds I subscribed to this weekend, my Amazon wish list has grown from 1600 to more than 1800 items. I blame Paul... he's such an enabler! ) tag:metafilter.com,2006:site.52264 Mon, 12 Jun 2006 13:55:41 -0800 amazon atom feedbuilder paulbausch PB rss silusGROK
