Tip for javascript people: parsing xml/rss feeds without php

I been wanting to parse feeds on a static only site, but usally you have to use a php file to do it, I just realized Google has a feed parsing api, which turns a xml/rss feed into a json object.

Thought I would pass it along.

You basically take

https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/ser...main.com/feed/

it turns the feed into a json object.

I put up a jsfiddle demo which grabs the google trends.

Code:

$(function() {

    $.getJSON('https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/services/feed/load?v=1.0&q=http://www.google.com/trends/hottrends/atom/feed?pn=p1&num=-1&callback=?&alt=json-in-script', function(data) { 

        $.each(data.responseData.feed.entries, function(i, item) {

            var title = item['title'];

            $('#trends').append(title + '<br/>');

        });

    });

});

Hope someone can use this ;)

I tend to use the google playground to see what things look like quickly
