RSS In IE7
Friday, at the Gnomedex conference in Seattle, Microsoft announced platform level support for Really Simple Syndication (RSS) in Longhorn. This is suppose to drive many of the new feature-sets available in the upcoming Longhorn flagship OS for Microsoft.. We’ll see.
Longhorn will provide a common RSS feed list across all applications, common RSS data store for applications to access downloaded content, and an RSS platform sync engine. Subscribing to an RSS feed from within Internet Explorer 7.0 will be similar to adding a Web site to “Favorites.” An icon placed in a toolbar will illuminate when feeds have been updated with new content.
