About RSS
|
"RSS is the internet's answer to the notification
scenarios we've discussed and worked on for some
time, and is filling a role as 'the UNIX pipe of the
internet' as people use it to connect data and
systems in unanticipated ways." Ray Ozzie, CTO, Microsoft "The state of RSS today can be compared to the Internet in the early nineteen-nineties. People would ask, “What can this do for my organization?” At the time, the answer wasn’t completely clear." MediaThink White Paper "... Microsoft said at one point they plan to ship 475 million units of Vista in the first 24 months. That's a lot. If I add up the total number of people in the world that have ever heard of RSS, I bet it's a lot less than 475 million." Greg Reinacker, Founder and CTO, NewsGator Technologies, Inc. "When you think about RSS as the start of a programmable Web, as you expose APIs to your Web sites, amazing things can happen." Bill Gates, MIX06 Conference |
