    Ah. RSS. The buzzword of the day.

    There are things RSS is good for. Like news syndication.

    There are things that RSS is NOT good for. Like, sending and receiving email or most forms of office communications.

    RSS is not the panacea

    I gotta tell ya... my evdo-coverage.com website took off after i started blogging. Thank GOODNESS or what ever the MIS equivalent is.. :) for RSS... As far as news... Turner and CNN had it right.. people want to know whats up. 24hours of world news changed the world.

    I'm psyched that safari will now inform me of when new stories are broken - so I don't have to check the sites myself. This seems like it will save me a lot of time; unless I end up subscribing to rss feeds from hundreds of sites.

    How many people, like myself, found out about this story because of Slashdot's RSS feed?

  5. Hey, then we could create a server by Colin+Smith · · Score: 3, Interesting

    Which would automatically gather all of the RSS feeds into a single location we could then just subscribe to that one server and pick all the feeds we like...

    Hang on, where have I heard of this before?
