I've just come across this article http://blogs.telegraph.co.uk/technology/shanerichmond/jun06/justdealwithit.htm and I'm stunned. I didn't really think that journalists actually understood what was happening.
Okay so I'm a techie. Compared to my peers I am ahead of the curve in terms of RSS (whatever that is :)) but its not too far before everybody discovers the power of web feeds in IE 7 and Vista. Maybe I've been reading far too many posts from scoble but until recently most papers over here protected their content so you couldn't get to it without a subscription.
My wife tells me I don't read/watch the news, but I just read smarter. I have two pages on www.live.com, one for news.
