I’ve been subscribed to the It Made My Day RSS feed for ages, but fairly recently they started adding pointless cutesy image macros as well as the text – I don’t want to see those in the feed as they’re generally hard to read and a waste of bandwidth.
So, Yahoo Pipes to the rescue – I created a simple pipe which fetches the IMMD feed, uses regexes to strip out the images, then subscribed to the result of that pipe.
Job done – if you’re interested, the pipe feed URL to subscribe to is http://pipes.yahoo.com/bigpresh/immdnoimages.
