Atom in a sea of RSS
Slides for an internal presentation.
I was invited in order to help advocate that certain
applications provide Atom feeds in addition to RSS
feeds. I’ve declined to do so, as I now feel that every
feed should be provided in exactly one feed format,
preferably with an x.0 version number. If your
feed is valid and you are
aware of — and have a strategy of coping with — the
limitations of the feed format you selected,
peace be
with you.
Note: at the moment, it works in Firefox. It doesn’t work in IE, and until I figure out why, I presume that it is my fault that it does not. I’ll look into it when I get a chance, but for now LazyWeb suggestions are welcome.
