Microsoft's Planned Support for RSS
Scoble after not getting Dave Winer a ticket to PDC - maybe as payback for Winer getting Junior involved in Skanking (skype prank calling) Dawn and Drew the other week, anyway the below is interesting - A numbered summary from Scoble about where he sees Microsoft supporting RSS :
1) In the OS itself as part of IE 7.
2) In the OS itself as a gadget on the sidebar.
3) In the new Outlook as a reader.
4) In the new Sharepoint (it'll spit out all of its stuff as RSS). We discuss RSS, blogging, and the new Wiki functionality in this video.
5) In the new Start.com where the aggregator is getting more and more sophisticated.
6) RSS was driving all the plasma screens at the PDC. In fact, if you added your photo to our PDC05 Flickr site within about a minute that photo would start appearing on the screens all around the hall. All other information on the screens was also delivered via RSS. It certainly demonstrated very clearly how RSS can be used for far more than just subscribing to blogs.
