If your site or project is powered by ROME, please take the time to write a short testimonial on this wiki page, or send a mail to users@rome.dev.java.net. Feel free to use our "Powered by ROME" badges in your work. (Several badge variations are available at the bottom of this page.)
Feed'n Read (FnR) is a free Java based open source newsfeed reader. It is powered by the ROME
syndication framework and therefore supports all current formats (RSS 0.90, 0.91, 0.92, 0.93, 0.94,
1.00, 2.00, ATOM 0.30 and 1.00). It disposes of an intuitive, fast and responsive user interface using
the eclipse Rich Client Platform (RCP), i.e. JFace and SWT. Thus it combines the platform independent
Java world on one hand with a fast native user interface on the other hand.
An AJAXian Todo Lists manager. We moved from our hand-made solution to ROME with great pleasure - it was fast and easy, and the overall performance is very good (11 ms per request in average today). You can try it out on our live site at http://tudu.ess.ch.
Roller is a weblog server. In Roller 1.1 there is a new aggregator feature, called PlanetRoller, based on ROME and ROME fetcher. Dave Johnson, who created Roller, created PlanetRoller in a couple of days, leveraging ROME and ROME fetcher to do all the hard work. You can try out at PlanetRoller.

Blog-City.com has been using ROME for many months now, utilising both the core project and the Fetcher project to allow bloggers to run their own mini-aggregators within their blog.
All blogs running at reger.com include ROME feeds. With the custom ROME module we wrote entry data is included in the RSS feeds. DataBlogging allows people to append activity-specific data to each of their entries. In addition to the pre-built log types (Running Log, Biking Log, Movie Log, etc), users can create custom log types with whatever data fields they need. The module outputs those data fields. Users simply customize their log types, adding and removing fields, and then the RSS feed automatically includes it. An RDDL document for the namespace can be found at http://www.reger.com/about/specs/entrydata.rddl Thanks again for all of the help and for making ROME great!
CNET Networks uses ROME with an application called the RSS Harvester. The purpose of this application is to harvest a list of predefined RSS/ATOM feeds, saving all new items for each feed in a database. In addition, each feed has an associated keyword that allows for easy surfacing of harvested data.
Once the feed data has been collected, internal editors can surface links to the harvested data on the TechRepublic website by including a call to a JSP component. This component passes several parameters including the number of items to return, the number of items from a particular site and an associated keyword. For example, http://techrepublic.com.com/2001-10591-0.html (see the section "More on ...") we surface related articles.
We are also using Rome for Re-Blogging on TechRepublic.com. Users can start their own blogs on the site as well as choose to import an RSS feed from an existing blog such as blogger.com. When the user imports an existing blog we use Rome to parse the RSS/ATOM feed then convert it to a TechRepublic blog. Any new blog posts on the external blog are automatically imported to TechRepublic.
We are currently using ROME as our feed generator and as a feed parser. Currently we publish RSS feeds of our latest articles on www.insideline.com, however, we also use it to provide updates between our sites. For example, our community site Townhall produces RSS feeds which we then parse using ROME on our Inside Line property. Rome has significantly speed up our development times thanks to its clean object model and its ability to generate multiple feed types.

The Rome library was very helpful and allowed an easy and quick implementation.

I use rome in daily production on www.abclinuxu.cz for watching cca 8 feeds and generating cca 60 feeds.
After fixing charset related issues (thanks!) it runs smoothly.
I am happy that I could remove my old propietary RSS rw code with Rome ... Leos
The latest My AOL product, a customizable, feed-driven web application, uses the Rome library to read, manipulate,
and normalize RSS, RDF, and Atom feeds. My AOL was built on a very rapid development schedule, and Rome
made much of it a lot easier than it otherwise would have been. --Bill Kocik, Sr. Software Engineer, America Online, Inc.
Rome is used on our site to provide rss feeds for forum threads. Implementation took me something like few hours
(including downloading and installation), so needless to say I am very happy. Thanks.

Rome is used to power the Planet section of The Open Source Zone, where we aggregate the most interesting feeds concerning Open Source. Took very little to implement, thanks to Rome. Rome Fetcher is used too, which is great.
rel8r is a tag search and feed aggregator. Rome is used extensively for collecting feeds as well as for publishing all of the aggregated feeds. We love it. - Travis
Several organizations in the social development sector monitor news that
is relevant to their work. This is a time-consuming and laborious
process for some groups, especially when the news is monitored, marked,
cut, and filed using hard copies of newspapers and magazines. This
process is very much the case in India. However, much of this work can
be automated using web versions of newspapers and magazines. In this
context, the broad goal of this project is to automate news monitoring.
NewsRack is a tool/service for classifying, filing, and long-term
archiving of news. Users specify filtering rules which are used to
select relevant articles from incoming news feeds. The selected articles
are then classified into various categories. This process is similar to
the process of specifying email filters to pre-sort incoming mail into
various folders.
NewsRack is currently using Rome. I am looking for developers, so, if this
project tickles you, please get in touch! - Subramanya Sastry

Wirecatch is a semantic news aggregator and visualization tool. It uses Rome to grab several news feeds and show connections and relationships between names, concepts and documents.
