A now "deceased" website on RSS marketing and RSS publishing - a look at the history of internet marketing

Rok Hrastnik

A Note from the Author: The RSS Diary is Closed

rssdiary.marketingstudies.net was built to help marketers get the most from RSS. However, much has changed since the site was last updated in 2007 - and it's pretty fair to say that it's now completely outdated.

Since I've moved on to other interests in internet marketing years ago, the site is now officially closed, and only remains online as an archive of a part of internet marketing's past. This is how we used to see RSS between 2004 - 2007. We don't, anymore, but there's no harm in having a small part of our past available online.

With that, I'm also making the e-book that started all of this, Unleas the Marketing and Publishing Power of RSS, available for free download.

Having a Robot Read RSS Content to You?

 
 

Who needs screen RSS content subscription and reading, if you can have a robot dog read your favorite RSS feeds to you?

No, it's not a joke, although I somehow wish it were.

Sony just demonstrated a new robotic dog, capable of doing just that.

"Aibo is a robotic dog which has the ability for short term memory mapping and reading out news feeds through RSS (Really Simple Syndication). Next time, we wanna look out for communication related news, we won't need to boot up our PCs or launch our PDAs any more. Aibo will come and buzz in into our ears directly!"

Innovative? Certainly.

Useful? Only if you're the next generation techno freak. But really, what are these guys thinking?
