First, I discoverd FeedWordPress, a WordPress plugin.

Second, I followed the installation guide to install it in my WordPress.

Third, for testing purpose, I set the link category that FeedWordPress will syndicate links from to be “WordPress”. This link catagory contains 8 links to WordPress people.

Forth, I invoked update-feeds.php.

After that, my blog increased its volume of contents by a lot more posts from others’ blogs, as well as some more authors. All of these contents did insert into the database of my blog.

The good thing is I knew what is feed aggregrators and aggregrator blog finally. This is a good example of learn by practice and experience. I did not read very detail and carefully about the FeedWordPress before I gave it a try. Originally, I just wanted to try something like Edu_Rss.

It took me more than one hour to roll back my weblog to its earlier status, because I did not practise frequent backup of my WordPress database.
