RSS (Real Simple Syndication) feeds have become really popular in within blogging circles. Using an RSS reader, a user can read content from multiple websites/sources without having to visit the actual source.
From a blogging perspective, this means that a blogger can read all of their blogroll/blogging associates’ posts within one place without having to go to multiple sites to read them separately. This would be a big inconvenience if a blogger has a large blogroll, or a lot of blogs to read.
I have found that subscribing to my blogroll’s RSS feeds are a great way to keep updated with their happenings. If you have a medium-large amount of blogs that you want to be updated with on-the-go, I would highly recommend subscribing to their RSS feeds.
With this premise in mind, the more the blogosphere grows, everyone’s blogroll with grow with it. Will we one day get to a point where we do not actually post to a blog, but post to a place where it will automatically push the post through an RSS stream, and the post not really having a central location?
What are your thoughts on the future of RSS-related blogging?
