ODHQ displays aggregated content dynamically generated from external source website RSS feeds in date and time order.
Aggregated content initially appears at the top of ODHQ’s pages and works its way down the list as new stories appear, until it drops off the list at the bottom of the page. Each small extract of aggregated content is only stored in a database for as long as it appears on the website.
ODHQ automatically selects items from RSS feeds by using pre-set keywords to identify stories of relevance to OD and business change professionals.
ODHQ credits external source websites for the unedited headline and small extract of content aggregated on its website and provides hyperlinks off to the external source website where content can be viewed in its entirety.
