On RSS feeds / CSS and Jason's Kottke's redesign of NetNewsWire

Posted August 27, 2002 3:56 PM.

Yesterday I posted a substantial rant on kottke.org about the role of RSS feeds and readers. Here's an excerpt: "Perhaps this is one of those times when we all realise that the potential uses for an adaptation of the technology exceed what people designed it for. RSS feeds are the palm-friendly templates that we've never all designed for, they're the truly cross-platform designs for the site that open up issues of accessibility for people using alternative readers because of blindness.".
