Bob Caswell: RSS Explained: A Really Simple Summary

  • Kevin · 1 year ago
    Hey Bob,

    How come my blog has 11 unread articles?!!

    Seriously, though, great explanation. I'm hoping that new versions of the big browsers (and the RSS implementation in Apple Mail in Leopard) will start to expose a lot more people to such a great time-saving and really quite addictive technology.

    Kevin-

    Haha, I should have checked that before making the screenshot... If it's any consolation, you've written at least 4x that many posts since I've subscribed. You're pretty high on the list in terms of click ratios. :-)

    I use email feeds for specific sites that I know produce great posts.

    Bob - I was just joking, of course, but looking at your list again actually makes me feel great - compared to GigaOM and Gizmodo, I seem to be doing quite well! :)

    Isn't it wonderful that Google Reader now says more than 100+?

    Yeah, the GigaOMs and Gizmodos aren't what they used to be (for me, anyway). Too many posts on topics that don't interest me as much. I read quite a bit of their headlines but more often than not, that's enough.
