'Push' Technology Gets A Nudge / Boston Globe Excellent article on RSS from the Boston Globe - provided by Dave Winer: http://www.boston.com/business/technology/articles/2004/01/05/push_technology_gets_a_nudge/   "Because RSS-compatible products are based on open Internet standards, anybody can produce them. So there'll be no RSS media empire or RSS billionaires. That's just as well, as it eliminates the hype that exaggerated the merits of push technology, and helped to destroy it. Instead, we can see RSS for what it is -- simple, powerful, and helpful. It's an idea from the Internet's adolescence, reborn into a world that's grown up." 8:46:08 AM    comment []
