RSS Feeds in a company

The above hyperlink shows how a company could successfully use a RSS feed to help themselves.  By posting up information on the blog, it also sends out information to the subscribers to tell them about the information posted on the blog so that they can be informed of when it updates and what it says in summary.  This has bolstered their reputation and sales.

RSS Feeds

After having used the RSS feed reader, Google Reader, I can say that I really enjoy using them.  Following feeds are much easier as it reduces the number of tabs I have to have open to find updates on each of my favorite websites and it saves time from me having to click throuhg multiple links to find these updates.  However, it does have some downsides to it.  While it does reduce time spent, it also doesn't give full updates.  This means only getting a portion of the info or not getting something that you wanted to see.  There is also the possibility that something will not show up due to a system error with the RSS forcing you to go to the site to get the updates.  That's what I could find out about the RSS!  It was really cool to use it!
