RSS 2.0: 200+ ways to find, aggregate, read, generate, manage, mix, filter, splice, tag, validate, publish, syndicate, promote, back-up & share feeds


"RSS 2.0" is almost a pleonasm. It makes that content unbundles, and it's doing the same with services. RSS is everywhere nowadays, and it's driving many of the innovations in the sociosphere. Although active use is still an innovators' thing, there's hardly a content owner or digital service provider who isn't exploring its endless opportunities.
All major browsers have included RSS reading functionalities, and services like start pages and some streaming content providers (Vpod!) are further popularizing RSS by making it a seemless experience. So do instant messengers and many mobile portals. Where it isn't it will be. This category is an awkward mix between high level solutions and accidental, sometimes obscure, snippets of well applied code. Close to a 130 additions in this update, in italic.

Fwicki is much more than an online RSS reader... it is an RSS mashup application, a social RSS community & the original RSS "feed cloud" generator.
