Weblogs : Bloogz.

I found Bloogz in my referrals. Bloogz is a basic blog engine that seems to index weblogs and posts from those weblogs. No fancy features like sort by date, automatic RSS Feed creation, etc. One neat feature is that is that the user can limit the search to 5 specific languages, which is neat. Of course, Feedster has the language feature too...

RSS Feeds : Will RSS kill the e-mail newsletter?.

Tessa Wegert has written an article on the RSS replacing e-mail newsletter debate.

"What does RSS mean to the content-rich e-newsletter industry? About three months ago, Ken Schafer, president of the Toronto-based Internet consultancy Schafer Group and a founder of The Association for Internet Marketing and Sales (AIMS), simultaneously launched an e-newsletter and added an RSS feed to his company's blog. Though it's difficult to determine exactly how many RSS users subscribe to a feed -- marketers cite this as one of the few limitations of the system -- he estimates that there are about 10 times as many people viewing his feed as the e-newsletter."
