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much has changed since the site was last updated in 2007 - and it's pretty fair to say that it's now completely outdated.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.

New RSS Services for End-Users

 
 

Google Desktop 2 Provides RSS Reader Functionality
Google just launched the 2nd edition of their desktop search tool, which now also functions as an RSS Reader.

RSS Poker Tournament Feed
Interesting RSS implementation from TournamentMonitor.com that allows poker players to keep up to speed on the latest RSS poker tournaments. If only they added a search or some other customization feature ...

Latest Online Videos via RSS
Here's another service that allows you to subscribe to online video search results. The cool feature is that each search generates a dynamic feed to bring the latest search results directly to your RSS reader. When will people stop discussing RSS primarily as a tool to deliver blog content?

Cheap Flights Information via RSS
Just The Flight, a UK based online travel agent, now provides RSS feeds with the information on the latest cheap flights for selected holiday destionations and UK airports. A great idea, but quite useless until they provide customization or search feeds, unless you're only looking for a specific destination.
