RSS and beyond


Referring back to Friday's entry...
Which was completed to fulfill an assignment for a graduate course...
As was the creation of this blogspot...

Whilst I am dancing around expounding the wonders of RSS, the author of the text through which I came to better understand this technology, is virtually at the same time posting to his blog that he is not using his reader any more. It gets worse, he goes on to write, "blogging is work these days. (Have you noticed?) It’s feeling more like shoveling the manure at Tess’s pony club…it’s got to be done, but there isn’t much joy in it."

If I were a less secure person, I would be devastated. As it is, I'm amused by the coincidence and pondering the indications. And to say more would just be work.

BTW - Thank you Will for your description of flickr (Richardson, 2006)
