I'd been looking for a way to archive selected feed entries as email messages for long term storage, but using services like RSSFwd or RMail by themselves sends everything to your email address. This morning it occurred to me that using del.icio.us or any other social bookmarking site as an intermediary would make it possible. When I checked my email I noticed that Monkey Bites reader David Rotham had [posted exactly the same workflow][2]. Here's what he suggests: >decide on how you'll tag items that you want emailed to you. Use that tag to "flag" items you want emailed to you. Get an RSS feed for your user ID and that tag from del.icio.us. Give that feed to RMail. That's it. So there you have it. And naturally David's tips apply to any social bookmarking site. If you send those emails to GMail, you've got a permanent online archive of news that you can tag and search whenever and wherever you need. The second tip for the day is pretty simple but something I didn't realize was available. As Digg continues to grow in popularity the signal to noise ratio seems to have corresponding decline. Posts that have nothing to do with technology still end up in that category, but it turns out that you can actually create feeds from Digg searches. Using a combination of "not" operators in the advanced search page I've generated a Digg feed that cuts out a lot of meaningless chatter that was cluttering up my RSS reader. Muhammad Saleem over at The Mu Life has the full details on [creating search-based Digg feeds][1].
