Yahoo Email + RSS Integrates Blogs

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the makes-sense-to-me dept.

yapplejax writes "In the new war of the Internet based applications, Yahoo is testing creating an email folder as the hub for RSS instead of using a web page for the feeds. " I've long thought this was the best way to do it- I've used web and application RSS readers for years, and email clients are simply a better interface.

    Yeah baby!

    This is nothing new. Look at all the RSS plug-ins for Microsoft Outlook.

    What's next? An RSS feed of Goatse-themed websites from Wikipedia?

    And wall st analysts are initiating a downgrade and sell
    as a result their stock price has fallen 1.3% in a day

    people are realising who the real market innovaters are and who are the copycat followers, yahoo used to have value, now they are merely an advertising application whos results are based on the largest wallet, not science.
    i used to respect Yahoo back in the early 90's , now they are just another desperate american advertising company

    Whoops, you should've patented it then while you had the chance. Now Yahoo will sue your ass for daring to steal their IP thoughts and boasting about it in public ;-)
