Curated RSS Feeds - My Best Article This Year

This is a link to a large and very useful article of mine called

Creating Apps With Curated RSS Feeds From iTunes, ClickBank, Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, Flickr, and WordPress Blogs

Even the site such as iBuildApp.com linked to it!

You Must Have a Valid Feed Before Showing in Your Android Single Feed RSS Reader

I have tried to use the source code for a RSS feed reader for Android, but it was showing JSON Exception error. It turns out that you must have a valid RSS feed in order for this reader to work, otherwise the error will show up. In order to validate feed go to to the following address:

http://validator.w3.org/feed/#validate_by_uri

Interestingly enough, the feeds from Yahoo Pipes were all wrong, i.e. did not validate!
