Re: Re: news.com.au RSS feeds

Hmm, I applied for access (just for my personal purposes) and they 
denied me. I think they just don't get it.

Re: Approaches to show/performance schedule information in RSS

I suggested [1] that a module that talked about the feed ordering, 
update practices, etc. might be a good thing; is there any interest in 
that yet?

Google Groups and Atom

Gosh!

Google Groups Beta 2 is now a direct competitor to yahoogroups. As well 
as Usenet:-
- You can now start mailing lists
- Sub to usenet groups as if they were an email mailing list

And here's the kicker,
- Every group has one or more atom feeds.

http://groups-beta.google.com/

Now where's the atom or rss feed from Google news, froogle, images?...

RE: Google Groups and Atom

It's certainly interesting to see how Google is unveiling its syndication
strategy step by step, skipping things that seem obvious to everyone else
but adding things that are pretty cool.    Who's got a good theory on where
this is all going?  Seems to me that gmail is an important piece ... I'd
love to be able to syndicate from within there.

RE: Google Groups and Atom

A few more comments after testing out Google Groups 2.  There are still some
wrinkles.

1) new groups aren't being promoted into the directory, at least not as
quickly as promised.  I couldn't find any Google mailing lists in the
directory yet -- it's almost all Usenet groups.
2) Google recommends the AmphetaDesk feed reader (see the "Feeds page", e.g
http://groups-beta.google.com/group/GRRM/feeds\)  but AD doesn't support
Atom!  Morbus Iff has no idea why Google singled out AmphetaDesk in this
fashion.
3) The My Groups tab at left sometimes truncates lengthy group names like
"google-syndication-strategy", producing broken URLs like this:
http://groups-beta.google.com/group/google-syndi...strategy.

Cheers, 
Fred

PS -- I have a few other questions for any Google lurkers...
