from Scripting News:
Those of us who podcast, listen to podcasts, blog
and use news aggregators know about RSS. It's the standard that gets
these applications to find out if there is new content for us to
download and absorb. Well, the big boys have finally joined the party
and announced so at Gnomedex: the next version of Microsoft Internet
Explorer will have RSS support. Even a mag like Business Week stands up
and notices:
Microsoft Crashes the RSS Party.
This means that the rest of the world (those who
only use IE) will now have a free piece of software that
will read RSS and give them the ability to channel
the information they want (subscribe to) quickly available to
them. I think I'm putting this quite simply but it's
a sign that RSS is here to stay...at least until it mutates
into something else.
