Does the script detect duplicate news from different feed

Hi Kwesi, no we don't do any duplicate checking - we just take whatever is in the given feed and work with that. If you'd like to combine multiple feeds and eliminate duplicates, you will have to use a different service or code it yourself. There are various feed mashup services around that might be able to do this and produce a new feed for you.

Thanks for your response. Can you recommend any of the services that combines different feeds into one and eliminate duplicates

Kwesi: I have no real experience with any of these, so can't comment on how well they work, but you may want to try them out:

Also there is http://pipes.yahoo.com/pipes/ which can be very powerful in combining feeds if one decide to learn how to create pipes.
