I wonder if anyone is confused between 'Clip' and 'Klip'.

One is for the web, the other is a way to clip content to the desktop. Looking at this in a positive way, maybe we did pick the right name for our product four years ago.

See http://www.serence.com/ and our use of Klips for the desktop.

I prefer not to pull down the entire article, I have a web browser for this. I use a Windows reader called Klipfolio. It has panels that display just the headlines, I mouse over for the first part of the article, or open the link in my browser if I want to read it. I know I should probably start using a "regular" RSS reader, but I am not giving up Klipfolio.

Forget about email as an rss reader...Klip Folio from Serence is way more versitile.

Other players are KlipFolio, Yahoo Widgets (Konfabulator), and Samurize.

KlipFolio and Yahoo use a JavaScript runtime to let developers quickly build Klips/Widgets. Google and Saumrize use a C++/DLL system for building modules.

Anyone have experience will some of the above consumer dashboards and would like to share their thoughts?

RSS is helping this, but it's only providing the content. I think people are missing an important point on these Web-based desktop applications: it lets a web site (such as Yahoo) provide content-specific logic with their data to increase traffic.

RSS: "Here is our feed; we hope you find it valuable and come back."

Web-based desktop applications: "Here is our feed PLUS a script-based program that increases its value by letting you personalize your awareness to our content."

Such applications let you offer content + content-specific logic to users. Not only can you offload some of the processing on your server, but more importantly give users a way to personalize their awareness, which leads to more traffic.

I think Konfabulator provides great eye candy, but is a bit too unstructured for corporate deployment. Corporations (and users) like consistency in an interface. If you want to see an example of a consistent interface for monitoring and alerting to changes in XML or HTML-based content, check out Serence KlipFolio. It has a JavaScript run-time engine and built-in APIs that make putting the business logic on the desktop easy.

Life is NP-Complete

A lot of people are commenting on the growing amount of advertising in feeds and trying to guess "What's next for RSS?"

We think RSS will follow a trend that is very similar to e-mail, and I think the parallels reveal some insight into the future of RSS for users.

Look closely at e-mail. It started grass roots (ignoring the few proprietary e-mail systems that large companies spent millions to develop and deploy). It was person-to-person. It was inherently insecure. People used it because it was easy, personal and saved them time and effort. Over time, corporations sanctioned it to increase efficiency. And people take personal interest in their inbox. This is my e-mail inbox and, as such, attempts at advertising (spam) are met with resistance. Same goes with advertising in your IM client - it is considered an invasion.

RSS is on a similar path. It started outside the firewall. It was person-to-person via blogs. It is inherently insecure (though there is interest in Secure RSS). People use it because it is easy, personal and saves them time and effort. We're now also seeing corporations integrating it to increase efficiency. And, I believe, people relate to their feeds the same personal way as their inbox. These are my feeds and any advertising will be met with resistance.

The key point is that E-mail/RSS is a user-driven technology. The adoption will be driven by quality of feeds (which is what FeedForAll is focused on) ease of use, and increased capabilities for users to further personalize their awareness (which is what we focus on).

While BBC's announcement is still about offering RSS and RDF feeds, and their APIs are not yet available, their effort is in the right direction.

Do you ever get the feeling that when a site finally puts up an RSS feed, they are saying 'Look, we now have a feed. Have at it folks. That's it on our end. No need to innovate further." In contrast, the BBC is not just giving out more feeds for RSS readers: they are giving components for creating applications.

I work at Serence, a company that for the last three years has been building a platform for deploying personal dashboards written in XML and JavaScript (http://www.serence.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=751) .

We've been thinking a lot about this question: what is next after RSS?

We think the next step beyond RSS is to create more intelligent clients, and we are trying to make it easier for people to do just that. Users want to have more control over their content. The BBC is realizing something that is counter-intuitive to many companies: give users more control over your content and it will increase adoption because each user can customize their awareness to their needs.

Wow, this may even make the BBC cool again.

The company I work for wrote a HotMail Inbox Watcher Klip that lets anyone monitor their HotMail Inbox for new messages from their desktop - and see a preview! - without having to manually login to check for new messages.

In creating the HotMail Inbox Watcher, we got the strong sense that the only other companies using HotMail/WebDav were spammers exploiting Microsoft HotMail.

Personally, I would like to see Microsoft support an API for HotMail so other sanctioned applications could integrate with HotMail and continue to increase its value for end-users.

We are trying to work with Microsoft to promote this as an option for third-party companies. The HotMail Inbox Watcher Klip runs in KlipFolio, an open platform for intelligent awareness of changes to remote data. Klips are programed in JavaScript. KlipFolio is free for personal, non-commercial use.
You can download it at http://www.serence.com/

MSN Messenger tells you when you have new HotMail messages waiting, but it only gives the number of unread messages -- you still have to login to read them.

Check out the HotMail Watcher Klip from Serence (http://www.serence.com) if you want to monitor your HotMail account for new messages.

The HotMail Klip is an intelligent agent that runs in KlipFolio. KlipFolio an open platform for developing task-specific agents that can monitor remote data source for changes. Klips are scriptable with JavaScript. Anyone can write a Klip and share it with others.

The result is you don't have to manually login any more just to check for new HotMail messages. The Klip does all the authentication with Microsoft Passport, logs in on your behalf every half-our, uses WebDav to check your account, and tells you your new messages -- with a preview of the message.

For a screen shot, check out this post in our developer's forum. http://www.serence.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=391

Best of all, KlipFolio (and the HotMail Klip) are free for personal, non-commercial use. If anyone has feedback on how we can make the Klip better, please e-mail me (fdixon at serence dot com) or post to our forums.

Regards,... Fred

Storage isn't everything. After 1G, its really a case of diminishing returns. Ask any user, and what they really care about is usability.

I also know a bit about e-mail checkers and what GMail is doing. I work at Serence, a company that makes KlipFolio, a windows tool that watches multiple remote sites for changes to save you effort.

We just released a Hotmail Klip that monitors your Hotmail inbox for new messages, shows you the messages in concise list, and gives you a preview on mouse over. Screen shots are here.

Our plan is to do a GMail Klip next. It took us quite a while to figure out Hotmail's use of WebDav and how to authenticate against Microsoft Passport. Hopefully, GMail offers an easier API than HotMail.

It's really in the interest of these companies to make their product easy for users (again: usability), and very easy for third-party vendors to add value to it.

Cheers,... Fred

Storage is not everything, as evidenced by the other post today about the GMail watcher Klip.

Want to monitor your Hotmail account without loggin in over and over again?

Check out the Hotmail Klip from Serence, it's bundled with KlipFolio 2.6, a free Windows tool that can monitor remote sites for changes so you don't have too. The Hotmail Klip shows you your message body as well, which is more than Outlook does.

You can download it here at Serence's site.

You can see some screen shots here.

(I'm not a coward, it's just too late in the day to create yet another on-line account.)

Do yourself a favor and check out a new month-old internet site called Serence. Since April 2002 they have had a free / no ads / no spyware download for your Windows desktop called Klipfolio and this thing is great. According to the site statistics 3400+ slashdotters have already downloaded the Slashdot Klip and after joining them today, I can see why. (No, I don't have any personal vested interest in this, I just think it's cool.) The Slashdot Klip stays on your desktop and downloads the XML feed from Andover/Slashdot containing current article headlines, alerting you when there is a new one. Klips from a few dozen other founding news sources with XML newsfeeds are also available in a scrolling, dockable, resizable, skinnable package. In the lower left corner of the previous link you can suggest a new klip feed to Serence you'd like to see - a great thing for you to do, the more sites that use this, the better for all of us. You can even start up your own personal Klip feed! Rack up your favorite sites in one desktop package and you are really in control...click on a headline, up comes the article, click on the site symbol, up comes the home page. Like any dot-com, Serence's success depends on market penetration and this is one idea I think deserves to be slashdotted so it has a shot at succeeding...

Offtopic? Not really, the article I'm posting under went out as a Slashdot Klip headline. And what good is maxed out karma if not to risk it in spreading the word about a cool new Slashdot feature?

Do yourself a favor and check out a new month-old internet site called Serence. Since April 2002 they have had a free / no ads / no spyware download for your Windows desktop called Klipfolio and this thing is great.

(No, I don't have any personal vested interest in this, I just think it's cool.) The Slashdot Klip stays on your desktop and downloads the XML feed from Andover/Slashdot containing current article headlines, alerting you when there is a new one. Klips from a few dozen other founding news sources with XML newsfeeds are also available in a scrolling, dockable, resizable, skinnable package. In the lower left corner of the previous link you can suggest a new klip feed to Serence you'd like to see - a great thing for you to do, the more sites that use this, the better for all of us.
