In Search Of: Blog Syndication.
July 19, 2003, 12:07 pmRemember the TV show “In Search Of”? Reminds me of Tenacious D:
“In Search Of: Sasquatch”
That was a kick ass “In Search Of”
With Leonard Nemoy kickin' out the jams! Haa!
Anyway, blog syndication formats have totally gotten out of hand and fragmented. I'm not even sure what version of RSS I wrote for Enterport. (To be perfectly honest, I just copied the RSS feed from Jeremy Zawodny's Blog.)
I find it particularly annoying that Dave Winer has taken it upon himself to rename RSS from “RDF Site Summary” to the incredibly lame “Really Simple Syndication.” While it may be more intuitive description, it's as lame as Neal Stephenson's insistance of referring to BIOS as “Built-In Operating System” (when in actuality it is “Basic Input/Output System”).
