DARPA is taking a step backwards with this move. Just as most other government websites are beginning to take advantage of RSS feeds and Web 2.0 technologies, DARPA has removed their RSS feeds for Broad Agency Announcements, instead reverting to Web 1.0-style email alerts. Newsflash: People don't want to get more email! People want to use email for...well...MAIL! They want to receive news via news feeds in a feed reader.

  • Beginning Saturday, November 15, there will no longer be a DARPA BAA
    Announcements news feed.
  • In lieu of a DARPA feed, you can register with FedBizOpps to receive
    notifications when they post new DARPA-related content. Once you
    have registered and logged in, you can set up a “Saved Search” that
    will periodically review all newly posted information and send an
    email notification.
