I'm not sure about the name, but Banktastic looks cool!

My earlier post this week,  Making RSS Easy, stirred up a great pot.  Mark over at the Garland Group has been working on exactly what I was talking about.

Banktastic is, "A community helping bankers quickly find relevant, industry specific information and share it with others".  While I can pick on Mark about the name, the work they (he) has done to aggregate RSS feeds is awesome.  The page that lists all of the feeds is here.  This is the Credit Union Feed and this is the Master Feed.  I can’t wait to share this with my peers!

    http://www.credituniontastic.com doesn’t have the same ring to it ;)

    I like the aggregation concept.

    Hehe, yeah we went back and forth about names because we want everyone to be welcome but decided to stick with it just because it was easier to remember and fun to say! :)

    In our experience with financial institutions, ALOT of processes and technologies are the same. So we wanted to create something that was built for the FI community with focused, niche information that you can find easily and share what you know with others.

    LOTS more cool stuff coming soon!
