Way to go David Dittman. With the unmistakable clarity of the crack of a bat on a ball, you blasted the heck out of any mystery obscuring RSS feeds.
What beautiful brevity.
Home Run David!

David, thanks so much for this entry. I\’ve been looking into RSS for several weeks now, and had given up trying to figure it out.

Your explanation - and example, especially - have demystified this valuable tool!

Thank you for your comment Mike and I’m glad the article helped. As far as Apps on a plane is concerned I hadn’t heard of it until now. I did however Google it due to the interesting nature of the name… and it looks like a great idea. Apparently what this application allows you to do is work offline on a company shared database and then synchronize when you’re back online. I’m intrigued to know exactly how this differs from the way other popular databases handle offline files. Unfortunately, I know very little about the company, Etelos and it’s “Ecosystem” that it is developed for so I’ll need to do some diggin’. Thanks for the comment and I’ll let you know what I turn up! Anyone else who can help shed some light and give us some personal experience let us know.

Finally I now understand RSS feeds and how I may create and apply them.Nice going!

Question: I am hearing some buzz about \\\”Apps on a plane\\\” and I don\\\’t know much about it. My buddy was at the \\\”Web 2.0 Expo\\\” in San Fran last week and mentioned it was one of the hot topics. What do you know about it?

Finally! I had given up on trying to understand RSS and how to make it work. You make it sound simple enough for me to do it now…
Thanks David

You\’ve just blown the myth of RSS right out of the water.
Your explanation was sound and simple and made the whole concept realiseable for my projects.
Many thanks and best wishes.
