WebService::Bloglines priovides you an Object Oriented interface for Bloglines Web Services (BWS). It currently supports Notifier API and Sync API. See http://www.bloglines.com/services/api/ for details.

TBD.

  • Cleaner API to make users free from the difference between OPML and RSS stuff
  • Use LibXML to parse OPML?

This module is in beta version. Object interface it provides may be changed later.
