It seems that there is a lot of activity around RSS lately (does that answer the “will RSS ever go big?<\/a>” question?). I am interested in this subject, because I use RSS a lot (here are some stats<\/a> from recently released trends feature in Google Reader) and because I was involved in development of RSS reader – a project dear to me, and frozen to death at the moment, but with plenty of hopes on my side to unfreeze it one day.<\/p>\n

One of the major challanges, when creating RSS reader, is trying to solve the “information overload” problem. There are a number of ways to ago about, and none of those that I saw worked well enough. In our RSS reader we used something very simple, based on the user’s reading habbits – feed access counts, items read counts, items bookmarked and followed counts – all measured against feed activity.<\/p>\n

Today I came across some excellent thinking at Ilya Grigorik’s blog<\/a> – part 1<\/a> and part 2<\/a>. There was also a link to RSS habbits study<\/a> by Microsoft.<\/p>\n

Something tells me that RSS readers will change a lot in the next few years…<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"\n
