Raspberry Pi: Displaying an RSS feed on an OLED display
The following Python code could be used to display the titles of an RSS feed on an OLED display, attached to a Raspberry Pi.
You need to install the Python “feedparser” package:

where the first parameter is the URL to the RSS feed and the second one is the number of seconds after a new title will be displayed on the OLED.
And here is the whole script:
