I'd love an RSS feed.

For convenience I've created a feedburner feed: http://feeds.feedburner.com/CoderWeeklyArchiveFeed

So... exactly like Peter Cooper's js and ruby weekly eh.

Pretty much, there is a fine line between being inspired by and just plain cloning..

Seems a little unfair. I'm subscribed to two weekly newsletters, both of which are excellent:

http://www.pythonweekly.com/

http://www.hackernewsletter.com/

...so I decided to create one to gather together the best, most detailed programming articles I could find, regardless of language or platform. I don't see how this could be called "cloning", though the format of a weekly newsletter is obviously nothing new.

Not to detract from Peter's excellent service, but it's not like he invented the e-mail newsletter either.

More like http://statuscode.org/ really (whose launch was delayed to this week ;-))

But, no, I didn't really invent the idea and there's more than enough room for multiple players in this market. It's almost my full time job now so I have a strong interest in trying to be the best but there are lots of other frequent newsletters on similar topics that have been around 10+ years and have 100,000s of subscribers :-)

That said, I appreciate the show of support nonetheless - thanks!

The idea is hardly unique, what matters more is that you have to somehow agree to the choice of content presented by the author of the summary in question.

I'm doing one of these myself for a few months, over at http://f5n.org/stack/ (and it consists at least 50% of HN content, so I didn't post it here as of yet.)

As I've also written somewhere my inspirations were http://www.foldl.org/ and http://chneukirchen.org/trivium - because there's stuff I like to see, I couldn't care less for weekly JS and Ruby links, for example, however rich in quality they would be :)
