Dropbox + RSS by Zapier

Create text files on Dropbox for new RSS feed items

News feeds, especially popular ones, move quickly. Stop trying to catch up in fear you'll miss something important; set up this RSS-Dropbox integration instead. From then on, whenever a new item shows up on your RSS feed, we'll capture it for you, automatically adding a new text file with the article to a Dropbox folder. Read up at your leisure—we'll keep the content coming.
