I think this may already exist, hence my question:
Is there something I can run which will create a Web page of RSS
aggregations for me, so I can use the resulting page to browse the
sites of my choice if they interest me?
I’d rather do this myself than subscribe to yet another service to
do it for me. I think most of the tools already exist, but have
found nothing that will aggregate RSS and yield the result as a
web page. Most of the components seem to be available, but not the
whole thing.
If the tool has options to generate RSS, so much the better.
Why is this “on topic” for Ruby? Well, if the tool is in ruby I’ll be
able to do more with it, and there is lots of RSS’d info relating to
Ruby, now.
I think raggle can do this easily…
and it is pure ruby (webserver based on webrick included)

I did try raggle but it ate up too much of my systems ressources. I
therefore wrote a very simple program that does not use XML
parsing libraries (the program was loosely modelled after an existing
Perl script).
If that’s urgent I’ll send you the program I am writing on in a PM.
If that can wait some days wait for rubyforge release (if no
unexpected problems occur the program will be released during the
course of this week). I wrote the program for precisely the reason
you want to use it for - with myself in mind.

It can wait a few days, certainly. Thank you.

Thank you. I’m reassured that I’m probably trying to use this
technology correctly!
Any feedback is welcome. If you have trouble with a certain feed
please provide URL or (if that is not possible for whatever reason) a
sample file.
Known issue: rubric does not care for the character encoding. That is
not a bug because seemingly some feeds do use non-ASCII charsets
without providing information which one.
So here’s the URLs (the example is a snapshot of rubric’s output
using the above feeds).
