Feeds module, the successor to FeedAPI, is a flexible solution for importing various data sources into drupal.

We’ll take a look at a couple of different use cases for using Feeds module (including PubSubHubbub) and how to write a custom feed processor.

I’ll also show how we’re using Feeds on Brazen Careerist.

I’ll be interested in finding out how the Feeds solution differs from the Table Wizard and Migrate modules combo to move legacy data.

Blake, what can I say…you blew my mind. And I have a particularly tricky site migration on the horizon. Would have never thought of feeds as a possible solution. Good stuff!
