The Two Shall Be Made One rss + css = blog. This blog is valid rss. View source if you don't believe me.[Sam Ruby]
This is really neat. This sort of thing is how all Web pages should be written. It's valid XML, but it's got a stylesheet, so Internet Explorer can display it nicely. But the XML is RSS, so an aggregator can simply ignore the stylesheet and use the structured data. You don't need an HTML page and a separate RSS page -- it's all in one. Can you imagine if every page on the Web was automatically RSS syndicatable? Totally sweet.
I have no idea how compatible it is with older browsers, however. But it's amenable to XSLT transformation to plain-vanilla HTML for legacy browsers. 5:44:45 PM
