Even Top 500 bloggers don’t know what RSS is

by Duncan Riley

It appears that not only do the vast majority of American’s not know what RSS is, Top 500 bloggers don’t as well according to Bill Burnham who asked an unnamed Top 500 political blogger if he had a RSS feed and was met with “what’s a RSS feed”. Don’t worry though, I’m not making fun at the unnamed political blogger because as I’ve written previously: Microsoft is right.

    It’s actually pretty funny. I wrote a script to parse the technorati top 100 and produce a nice importable OPML, but many of them didn’t have RSS or didn’t have their head section configured properly. Sigh.
