Show HN: RSS Feeds with News from AWS

AWS actually isn't that bad when it comes to RSS feeds: Their official blog offers an RSS feed [1], but even better: each of their forum sections [2] offers a (quite hidden) RSS feed with all announcements in that section, which is quite handy if you're interested in news for a particular service only. For example here is the RSS feed for S3 announcements: https://forums.aws.amazon.com/rss/rssannounce.jspa?forumID=2...

Well I always thought AWS had only one RSS feed for all their news thus parsing the feed and making this page. I did not know about a feed for each section. Thank you!

I would like to see the ability to only get news are available for my aws region Frankfurt (or globally such as Cloudfront). I really don't care that service XYZ is now available in AWS GovCloud. I would like to get news regarding new services and be able to easily remove them if they are not interesting to me (e.g. Microsoft SQL).

But I have to be honest I would not spend money on it.
