A while ago, Dave Winer gave 10 reasons why RSS Rules. Dylan Greene now offers 10 reasons why RSS is not ready for prime time.
10 reasons why RSS is important to me:
- Government of Canada Newsroom
- RSS in Governments
- Thematic feeds from CIO.com, for example, IT in Government and Web Services.
- Computerworld feeds, IT in Government, Government, Government Policy and Web Services
- Novell: Cool Solutions: Live Feeds offers thematics news from Novell. One theme is Government.
- Share Your OPML
- RSS Winterfest
- My Yahoo goes RSS
- DR Nyheder, Danish news
- Trend Micro virus warnings.
This could easily become a 100 reasons or more, if need be.
