Not the parents, but RSS feeds are awesome. Twitter is ephemeral, but a feed can be batched and consumed at any time.

Looks like you're using Rails. Something like http://railscasts.com/episodes/87-generating-rss-feeds-revis... should be fairly straightforward.



Yep, implementation is a no brainer, was just curious about the viability of RSS as medium. It appears it is not dead!


Definitely not, especially among the crowd you aim to write for.


I'm a big fan of NewsBlur (YC S12) -- it restored my faith in RSS readers.


This exactly, I don't really have a way to save tweets with interesting content for later consumption, RSS does that for me by default.
