Blog on Photoblogs

Nowadays, suffering from information overload is not uncommon occurrence. Thanks to the proliferation of blogs and the acceptance of RSS readers everyone is more than capable of creating their own “daily newspaper” which can be updated (in some cases) several times a day! Having access to all the information you want, when you want it an amazing thing, but it’s pretty obvious how easy it is to become overloaded.

Instead of publishing generic RSS feeds which cover all the images on your photoblog, why not create specific feeds based on the high-level categorization of the images on your photoblog? With a little planning most photoblogs could easily categorize their photography into a few high-level categories and then allow their fans to subscribe to one (or more) feeds based on their own likes.

I am personally considering the creation of individual feeds based on the high-level categories that I have created based on what I like to shoot, this way the people who frequent my photoblog are able to get updates related directly to what they are interested in, nothing more, and nothing less.

Since my photoblog is based on Pixelpost I spent some time looking for addon to accomplish this multiple feed feature, but as I am writing this I have had no luck locating an applicable plugin. I will let you all know if I find something.
