I am trying to learn more about RSSCloud and PubSubHubbub by playing around with example apps. I tried to run a test app to check for updates to my 1999 blog, but the RSSCloud server created by Andrew Shell did not seem to like a feed URL that has a port number in the URL. I sent him a note, hope to hear something soon. 

I am taking a look at PubSubHubbub. I dded a WordPress plugin to my main site, and I can see that that there is a link in the RSS feed to a PuSH hub. I tried some experiments to see how fast a reader could update when I make a post. The Old Reader did not seem to do well. I tried Inoreader next, and it picked up the updates right away, but I had to refresh the screen to get the update.

I am going to start playing with a NPM module as well, will comment on that in another post.
