RSS Feed Syndication And Copyright...

[Lee]

I was just reading a thread on a mainstream board about how they feel that 'rss syndication' is going to be the next 'big thing' ( it already is but whatever) and it made me wonder, once it starts picking up pace in mainstream, do you think we're going to see people thinking of ways to get 'more' out of syndication than simply using other peoples feeds for content?

I mean we've seen it happen with things in the past that have gained popularity and started getting abused on the mainstream side of the business, pop ups for example, they used to be great for making money but, once non-adult started to use and abuse them, everyone and their mother decided that they were 'bad' and then pop up blockers were developed which pretty much killed their effectiveness.

Do you think over the comoing years we're going to see an increase in non-adult sites utilizing rss feeds and in doing so, are we going to start seeing the same thing happen when it comes to RSS feeds that we saw with consoles, the slow following saying that they are 'bad' and shouldnt be used?

Regards,

i guess anything is possible but i think most people know rss can be used by everyone that is why they offer it

Yes, I think mainstream will be using a lot more RSS feed content. Social networking sites are making it much easier to post feed content as well as links.
