A RSS feed for your country’s medal hunt in Olympics 2008

Tag: Yahoo Pipes, Projects — Karthik @ 1:18 am

I’ve created a Yahoo Pipe to find the list the medals won by a country in the ongoing Olympics 2008. Visit the pipe, enter the country code and click on “Run”. Find the list of Country codes here.

The results are displayed as shown in this picture,

RSS feed for Olympics 2008 medals by country

And how to create a feed for the medals won by your country’s Olympians from this Pipe? Here you go!!. This is the format of the feed url,

http://pipes.yahoo.com/yemkay/olympics2008medalfeed?_render=rss&country=XXX

Replace XXX with the country code. Open your feed reader, subscribe to this URL and be the first to know when Olympians from your country win medals. Feed for my country is still empty. Dont miss the hot ones - China and United States.
