While reading through my ever-increasing list of RSS feed entries, I came across this great article.
http://writingtheweb.com/archives/000020.asp – Six tips for better RSS Feeds
RSS seems to be what everyone who runs a site is talking about these days, yet few people actually implement it correctly or effectively. My biggest pet-peeve is Slashdot‘s RSS implmentation. They only include the title of the story and about 20-40 words from the article itself. In many cases, it’s simply not enough information to get an idea of what the article is actually about! Such a frustrating waste… This article brings up this issue, as well as a few others.
A good read for everyone who runs a site and already has an RSS feed or is planning to implement one.
