iTicker Widget

Version: 1.0

iTicker is a dynamically updating feed of sports scores, news headlines, or any other RSS feed.

Similar to the little ticker you might see showing stocks while watching the news, iTicker is similar in that it displays RSS feeds at the bottom of your iPhone or iPod Touch in a convenient way. It currently shows MLB, NFL, NBA and NHL scores periodically. But that’s not all, you can configure iTicker to show items from any RSS feed. Simply SSH into your device, /Library/Themes/iTicker, find the HTML file inside and edit this:

cssfeed.addFeed("Sports Scores", "http://pipes.yahoo.com/pipes/pipe.run?_id=5hrDg6Ir3hGzle_u6icw5g&_render=rss") //Specify "label" plus URL to RSS feed

Replace the bold text with your own title and RSS feed URL.

This is simply a nifty app, useful for things like Twitter, stocks, and more. Though it needs an app to go along with it to change the feed and other settings. SSHing is a chore, once it has it’s own app it’ll be much better off.
