Announcement: DRCNet Content Syndication Feeds Now Available for YOUR Web Site!

Submitted by David Borden on (Issue #495)

Are you a fan of DRCNet, and do you have a web site you'd like to use to spread the word more forcefully than a single link to our site can achieve? We are pleased to announce that DRCNet content syndication feeds are now available. Whether your readers' interest is in-depth reporting as in Drug War Chronicle, the ongoing commentary in our blogs, or info on specific drug war subtopics, we are now able to provide customizable code for you to paste into appropriate spots on your blog or web site to run automatically updating links to DRCNet educational content.

For example, if you're a big fan of Drug War Chronicle and you think your readers would benefit from it, you can have the latest issue's headlines, or a portion of them, automatically show up and refresh when each new issue comes out.

If your site is devoted to marijuana policy, you can run our topical archive, featuring links to every item we post to our site about marijuana -- Chronicle articles, blog posts, event listings, outside news links, more. The same for harm reduction, asset forfeiture, drug trade violence, needle exchange programs, Canada, ballot initiatives, roughly a hundred different topics we are now tracking on an ongoing basis. (Visit the Chronicle main page, right-hand column, to see the complete current list.)

If you're especially into our new Speakeasy blog section, new content coming out every day dealing with all the issues, you can run links to those posts or to subsections of the Speakeasy.

Click here to view a sample of what is available -- please note that the length, the look and other details of how it will appear on your site can be customized to match your needs and preferences.

Please also note that we will be happy to make additional permutations of our content available to you upon request (though we cannot promise immediate fulfillment of such requests as the timing will in many cases depend on the availability of our web site designer). Visit our Site Map page to see what is currently available -- any RSS feed made available there is also available as a javascript feed for your web site (along with the Chronicle feed which is not showing up yet but which you can find on the feeds page linked above). Feel free to try out our automatic feed generator, online here.

Contact us for assistance or to let us know what you are running and where. And thank you in advance for your support.

Hey, ... Thanks for the feed tools. I pasted the code in the above page, and it worked right away.

By the way, it would be nice if the DRCnet site remembered me rather than having to login almost every time I want to make a comment like this. And when I do login, it doesn't take me back to this page. I have to hunt it down. Oftentimes I give up looking for the original page I was on, and don't leave a comment. Or I don't even login ... remembering vaguely that it didn't work out last time, though not remembering why ... since I comment on various websites, and do not always remember the particulars for each site. But if I was always logged in here, I would just comment anytime I felt like it, and then move on. Commenting should not be such a big hassle. I have allowed permanent cookies from the site, so I do not know why it does not remember me very long. I am using the latest Firefox browser.

And how will I know when replies and comments are made to this page? I suggest a system to send emails to people when additional comments are made to a page of interest.
