Yingqi,

Though the GeoJSON driver allows for reading the data directly, it is more
like an exception. For consistent behavior between formats, you need to
read the data from a data source like a file or url.

You can create a temporary in-memory file of your data using the method

gdal.FileFromMemBuffer()

Example at http://www.gdal.org/ogr/drv_georss.html

There are also a few methods to import/export just the geometries. You can
import GML and WKT [1] and export to GML, KML and JSON[2].
