django-planet
A reusable Django app for building RSS/Atom feed aggregator websites (aka "Planet" sites).
Django-planet makes it easy to create a planet-style feed aggregator. Collect posts from multiple blogs and websites, store them in your database, and display them with built-in views and templates—or build your own custom front-end.
