It’s just data

RSS Autodiscovery


Tim Bray: The technology that makes the Web go doesn't have any built-in notion of a "site" or a "home page", even though that's how people think about things. This has all sorts of practical problems; the well-known /robots.txt mechanism for crawler control is kind of a kludge, and works really badly when multiple sites are on the same server, for example members.aol.com. Another symptom is the fact that it's kind of hard to find the RSS feed for a web site.

Might I make a suggestion?
