Intro to RSS
As those of you who know me can attest, I tend to get very excited when I start to explore new technologies, and it usually prompts a million-and-one ideas to enhance the Latigent software offering for our customers. Well, the latest darling of my eye is RSS, or Really Simple Syndication.
Most of you have probably seen the
icon on websites (including ours) and wondered what the heck it meant. And, if you’re like me, you probably clicked on it and got a screen full of "gobily-guck", got frustrated because you didn’t know what it was and then closed out the screen and went on your merry way. If however, you’re one of the growing number of people out there that are already familiar with the concepts of RSS and are using it today, please fast forward to the next blog. For rest of us, please read on…
It may be hard to believe, but that screen full of gobily-guck holds the key to a whole new world of personalized information delivery. It is impossible for me to even touch on the tip of this technology in one blog, so I will break it down into several narratives. I will try to keep them simple, and relevant as to how this technology will be harnessed in new versions of BlueVue; but my underlying message is this: Just like WiFi, VOIP, GOOGLE, and eBay have shaped and changed our lives – so will RSS.
