BBC to Provide Extensive RSS

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the lots-of-simple-syndication dept.

Georgie2032 writes "The BBC News Online's Editor states that beginning in the middle of May, the BBC will be 'completely liberating the availability of its content' using its Really Simple Syndication (RSS) tool. 'So in May we'll be happy for outside websites to dip in and take our headlines'"

    for a site that lives and dies by "competition is great" you'd think two voices would be welcomed in politics. I watch Fox and BBC, both are full of crap but I'm not so far gone I think Bush is a Nazi, or A Hero. The truth is in the middle somewhere and if you only listen to one side of the argument.. ah hell with it, i bet most of you are the guy that laughs at commercials and repeats things said in advertisements.

    No, Anonymous illiterate Coward, it's English. The Greek word, as you yourself quote, was "mimma". The French word was "même", meaning "same". Richard Dawkins, the evolutionary biologist at Oxford (where they also publish a dictionary), introduced the term as an info parallel to "gene", in his landmark _The Selfish Gene_. But then, your rudimentary grammar is consistent with a mind that doesn't even absorb the other, more accurate, etymologies on the page where you found your inadequate one, because it's not at the top of the page.

    Now that I've schooled you, take another lesson: don't reproduce. You're in over your head, and drowned in the meme pool, Anonymous unfit Coward.
