Microsoft and RSS
Today has seen the news that Microsoft will be heavily adopting RSS in Longhorn and the next Internet Explorer. This seems to be a smart move as I am not sure where else there is to go in the browser wars. Perhaps there are no more significant battles to be won in the war to present the best web pages. The new territory is the semantic web that RSS belongs to and a whole new generation of internet application that talks to other applications easily and manages rich media such as video and music as well as it handles web pages today.
“As this idea continues to gain in popularity, users will be able to subscribe not only to blogs and news, but also to content-feeds (audio, video, documents, photos, calendar events) and lists (playlists, booklists, link-lists, blogrolls, wishlists, Top 10 lists, To-do lists).“ Link
