I have been looking through the forum trying to establish if this can be done.

I would like to have a section on the home page of my site that pulls in one story from each of say BBC news, Guardian news, Yahoo news etc.

Can this be done?

Can anyone point me in right direction?

Have a look at the RestfulService documentation:

hi, I've used the Google ajax feed API with good effect, although not in a silverstripe implementation. However it should work anywhere.

thanks for responses. I will have a look at these today and let you know,

I have done this using the SimplePie class, bundled in the sapphire/thirdparty/ folder.

I used it in my Dashboard module: http://www.silverstripe.org/all-other-modules/show/269666#post269666

It is also used in the blog module I beleive. If you picked the code appart, you sould be able to pick out the method you need.
