Is Newsgator poised to become the "RSS Company?"
Interesting post by Jupiter Research's Michael Gartenberg on whether/how Newsgator can create the anytime/anywhere/any platform access to RSS feeds that we need in order to make this new channel easy and seamless to use.
You are right on with the idea that corporations will adopt RSS feeds for far more than simply a news aggregator. RSS has the potential to flip many technologies around, not just because of innovation but rather standardization. I have already stated that RSS will replace what we do in the world of metadata and asset classification. It just needs leader and entrepreneurship to make it happen.
