Yea, I've been feeling that for awhile now. But, in general, our
customers are not very computer sauvy. I'd bet fewer than 5% have even
heard of "RSS", and I'd bet fewer than 1% use RSS regularly. With a bit
of judicious education, via our mailing list, as well as directly on the
site, I'm sure I could bring that percentage up significantly. But I'm
still wondering why I should bother right now.
But on the other hand, I think you are absolutely right, that the RSS
movement is real. But I don't think it is quite mainstream yet, let
alone something our average "Bountiful Baby" customer knows about.
So, yes, I've about talked myself out of doing an RSS feed since I first
posted to this thread. At least, for now. But I think eventually it
will be pretty much mandatory for most websites.
But I still find the topic interesting, and appreciate each and every
thought and comment on it, especially in conjunction with Seaside.
