Subscribe to Anyone’s Google+ Plus Profile Updates via RSS Feed Posted: 15 Jul 2011 10:02 AM PDT
Generate RSS Feed for Public Updates from a Google Plus ProfileSince Google+ doesn’t officially rss feeds for profile updates, Russell Beattie created this useful tool called PlusFeed <link> that transforms public updates from Google+ profile into an atom feed which you call follow via any reader of your of your choice. Step 1 : Go to the Google Plus profile of the user and copy the unique User ID from the address bar. Step 2 : Add this User ID to the end of http://plusfeed.appspot.com/USERID to create a unique URL api. For eg: The link for Matt Cutt‘s Google+ Profile will be http://plusfeed.appspot.com/109412257237874861202 Simply add this URL to your Feed reader to subscribe to the public updates of the Google+ profile (Matt Cutts in this case). This way, until an official release, you can subscribe and follow anyone posting updates on Google+ without adding them to a circle. Quite useful if you don’t use Google+ but want to get updates from a person of your interest. A good thing about Google+ status updates is the public posts gets indexed by Google hence you can use them as google’s realtime alternative, since they are not offering realtime results from twitter anymore. Tip : Show Unread Notifications for Gmail, Reader on Google Nav-Bar Related posts:
