    RSS Killed the Search Star


    I wonder if Dave Winer knew what he was doing? 
     
    In recent discussions with a good friend of mine I've come to realize that RSS is the Ultimate Pigeon. Maybe that's why, while Microsoft pours support for RSS into every application and OS, Google is trying it's best to kill it. Killing something is an act of desperation.
     
    Microsoft makes it's money off software, Google makes it's money off finding information. RSS channels information directly to the user, without effort, without search, without browsing to a portal - the ultimate customizable informational remote.
     
    Interesting stuff.
