Google Blogger Content Label Specific RSS feeds

I use the Blogger.com engine to run my mobile blog site which I then later edit to add additional text and content labels. Labelling content not only helps the user find articles with specific terms, it also helps the user share specific items from one site with another. I quite often blog photographs and text from Scout evenings to my mobile blog and wanted to find a way of making these available from the Orion Online scout website.

This evening I've been developing the Orion Online website, making the front page more user friendly and helpful to visitors. I wanted to enable access the 'scout' items on my mobile blog site from the Orion Online website, so I needed to find out how to create RSS feeds for specific content tags.

I think the default RSS feed from Blogger.com uses the RSS2 specification, and for some reason this is incompatible with Drupal's built in RSS Aggregator. I had to amend the feed URL from:

http://mobile.jonathansblog.net/feeds/posts/default/-/scouts

to

http://mobile.jonathansblog.net/feeds/posts/default/-/scouts?alt=rss

probably to enable RSS 1.0 output.

I have noticed Drupal v6.0 is now available for download and may solve this problem. I might find a moment to upgrade this blog site to version 6 over the weekend.
