The Dust Has Cleared on the Future of RSS | Eqentia
As an RSS and news junkie, I’ve been on cloud nine in the past 48 hours because of the excitement surrounding Dave Winer’s rssCloud implementation. In an email this morning, Fred Wilson asked me to explain why this was so special and important. And Dave Winer who has already gone to great length at taking us with him on his journey to unravel this feature also asked me if I could explain my understanding of the impact of this capability.
So, let me try to simply answer the “So what?” of the rssCloud.

Justin Baum: Broken filters
As a result of this fact the real focus needs to be on filtration not, "I cant handle all this information!" Part of information literacy for our generations will certainly be how to manage the various stream of information coming at us. Designers and engineers will continue to come up with amazing ways to filter information, but what is of most interest to me are the techniques and methods "normal" individuals start to develop as information overload begins to be seen less as problem that needs to be fixed and more of state of being. To quote Shirky we need to ask ourselves...
"what filter just broke?"
-
So in an effort to become more efficient I filtered each of those 4 tech blogs RSS feed by their most "engaged" posts using AideRSS, and then spliced the resulting feeds into a single feed using yahoo pipes that I dubbed ValleySpew. Now I get about 45 posts a week from this feed that I can easily keep track of if I don't have the time to read everything else. This wasnt the result of a mastermind engineer solving the worlds information overload problems, this was one person solving a personal filtering problem with the resources they had available.
