The Problem of RSS

RSS is a cool technology. Basically, summarize a web site’s changes in a standard format. With an RSS reader, a user could easily pickup the latest changes from multiple web sites’ RSS feeds.

So, what is the problem? Well, same old problem. Just like we got too many web sites, now we are getting too many RSS feeds.

Apparently, after years of Internet technology development, we are still at square one.

While I am at this, from what I can see, the big three (Google, Microsoft and Yahoo) are not focusing on this information overload anymore.

It is the worst of time. It is the best of the time
