I've been playing with Feed2Post for another site; I like it, as you can set a myriad of queries for keywords and it pulls them in as content...cronjob...ad insertion, etc, etc.
I'll see if the one you mention has a demo, as I would like to try them all out before I settle on one for my real political pundity site.
I am interested in what may have been at the link Jame's mentioned below, however; I got a 404. Any update would be kindly appreciated. thx.
"Hey nice job Terp!
Have you looked at
joomclan.com/index.php?option=co
... 1&Itemid=3 as something to help with the content population? Looks to me like the *perfect* complement to Tribune's uber cool RokMiniNews.
Did you ever give JoomRSS a try? I really like Feed2Post, but would like to see how complex one can set the query/filters for each RSS feed...
*edit: Disregard; after watching the JoomRSS demo again, it looks like it pulls everything-but-the-kitchen-sink feeds and no way to filter them. I'll stick with feed2post.
