Track search.twitter.com in your IM

Today i decided to release jRSS2IM which is a java implementation of RSS to IM; it basically monitor an RSS feed then send the updates to your IM. Warning, this is not for the faint of heart; this is an uber-techie’s/developer’s tool!

search-twitter

Its practical use is for tracking search.twitter.com results via RSS, by doing so you can track your @replies or #tag and send it to your IM.

Finally this compliments Ping.fm where your can post twitter updates via IM – now receive replies via IM too!

You can get the source at http://code.google.com/p/jrss2im/, yes you need to compile this yourselves! This release is not intended for the end-user.

Please use the issue tracker to report bugs and request. Make sure to read the Wiki for the build and configuration guide.

If you want to join the project, please leave a comment, IM me or email (you must be Java developer and have a Gmail account).

Enjoy!
