RSS Web-Feeds, The Next Big Thing?

mi writes "Yahoo! carries an Associated Press editorial about RSS-based news feeds, and how they are pushing the spam-ridden e-mail and advertising-ridden web-pages aside and consolidate information from multiple sites. Slashdot itself is mentioned by the author as one of his sources." We've been exporting our headlines practically since the beginning. (note that RSS link in the footer). I still think the problem with RSS is the name. It sounds stupid. Let's all call it 'Speed Feed'. Cheesy rhyming will help the non techno elite remember it, and this is a technology that needs to be more widely deployed. (It's also worth noting that Slashdot's RSS feed will have more article contents for subscribers in a few weeks)

Not much point me posting this, because the moderators who should see it, won't.

Because the only reason to post it to be modded up?

No the reason to make that post was to reach the idiot moderators who don't browse below "1". You could have at least quoted all of it, so a few more might have seen it.

My fault.. what you said wasn't trolling, and the way I quoted it, it may have seemed that way.

Regardless, I moderate at 0, spending the majority of my points on people whom have something interesting to say who have relatively new accounts, but that's me.
