		<description>[...] Stephen Downes hat mich auf einen schön älteren Artikel von Pascal vanHecke aufmerksam gemacht: &#8220;Visualising RSS: playing with WizaRSS and S5&#8243;. Pascal zeigt hier eine Anwendung mit der man einen RSS-Feed in eine Präsentation einbinden kann. Als Beispiel findet ihr hier den e-Learning Blog. Eigentlich eine gute Idee. Jetzt müsste man nur noch editieren und ergänzen können. [...]</description>

		<description>[...] If you&#8217;re looking to turn your blog into a web-based slideshow presentation, Pascal Van Hecke has a nice little script that will make it happen for you (this was published last Fall, just found it). Simply input your RSS feed and the script converts your last 10 posts into a slideshow using S5, which is a standard-based slideshow based on XHTML, CSS, and JavaScript (aside: I used S5 for the first time at CiL and highly recommend it).

		<description>Hmm, let&#039;s see how I can bounce the ball back :-)

I think the problem shows how difficult it is to separate content from presentation, and make it medium-independent (suitable for different screensizes, skins, or even devices).  We&#039;ll have to stick to very simple formats per rss item: some text with 1 image, audio file or movie, or with a combination of audio and a picture at maximum.

But also: avoid adding presentational markup in the html...  If you add “width: 400px”  to make it suitable for Blogger, than you ask from other presentational layers to strip that 400px again... whereas the 400px rule should be in the presentation layer that is Blogger, not in your content.  Maybe you can try something like 

.post-body img {
	padding: 0;
	max-width: 100%;
}

in your css file?

BTW: Luc &lt;a href=&quot;http://blog.forret.com/blog/2005/09/wizarss-wizard-player-based-on-rss.html#112795083755960686&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;has a point&lt;/a&gt; about the lack of internal structure of RSS, &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synchronized_Multimedia_Integration_Language&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;SMIL&lt;/a&gt; was created for multimedia presentations. 

But then again, Smil didn&#039;t succeed, and wizaRSS could piggyback on the popularity of RSS+enclosures (which it is) to get some popularity.

With a simple combination of RSS and video enclosures + a javascript + html skin like S5, it should be possible to achieve something (maybe not as smooth and fully automated, but still) like &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/press/presentations/Producer2003_V8/Producer%202003_files/Default.htm&quot;&gt;microsoft producer 2003&lt;/a&gt; for which you need a Powerpoint plugin to produce and an extra ActiveX control to display...</description>
