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.<br>
<br>
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.<br>
<br>
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.<br>
<br>
But I still find the topic interesting, and appreciate each and every
thought and comment on it, especially in conjunction with Seaside.<br>
