This analogy breaks down a bit when you focus on the technology. RSS, technically, at least as we understand it, is simply a format for presenting information in a consistent manner, similar to what HTML is to the Web–a markup language (based on XML for you acronym lovers). The actual distribution process is still handled by good ol’ HTTP (the same protocol you use to send HTML code to your Web browser). But you get the idea. Hopefully.

Little drastic “Optimist,” but once Microsoft does it others do follow.
For my clients, these opt-in news and opinion delivery channels are welcomed by audiences that are flooded in e-mail. Think of these as a distributable “What’s New” for a Web site. It leverages the Web’s most valuable asset, content, and makes displaying high-quality relevant news on a Web site easy. RSS and blogs can also be the basis for additional content distribution services or even commercial offers.

Companies that do not blog will die a slow painful death. Blog or perish!
