I Got the RSS religion
I finally figured it out
Sure, I've been using RSS for a year or so now,
using it to keep up on my favorite websites. I never understood the devotion to
it that its proponents exhibited at Gnomedex, in blogs and on the Gillmor Gang.
Then I wrote my own RSS aggregator as an exercise and it struck me. Sure, there
is the "real-time web" and all that stuff, which is cute and fine, but what is
more interesting is all the other stuff that you need to keep up with. All of
the sudden, I see anything and I see the need for an RSS feed. It all makes a
bit more sense now.
I got a fever...
and the only prescription is more RSS feeds.
