Search Engine Land echoes something I said today while offering AOL an brown bag on RSS, “reliance on search and time spent with search may diminish as RSS feeds and other structured content delivery mechanisms are adopted by users.” Spiders and bots are just sophisticated web scrapers. RSS offers better ways of looking at content.
By the way, the “What is RSS? And How can it change my life?” brown bag at AOL went very well.
They took a video of the hour-long brown bag that will be posted for all of you to see up on the dev.aol.com server. Keep an eye out. Of course, I will post it in all of its glory when it goes up, you can count on that.
After 19-years in DC, this was the first time I had visited AOL’s Dulles campus. They were very friendly, nice, and generous with me. AOL has a fly pad and real plans for the future. I was impressed by what I heard.
Thanks to Dion Hinchcliffe for recommending me and Francis Wong for inviting me.
