Hey some Middlemanagers aren't boring, it all depends on the company. I
should mention I am not and never aspire to be Middle management.

I know it isn't a very strong claim, RSS is one of those technologies that
will sneak in. But it isn't there yet, yes it maybe embedded in devices and
programs, it is embedded in Outlook 2007, I know a company that has this
unfortunately on almost 1000 computers, not one uses RSS. It is embedded in
new nokia phones, I use it, but I know at least 20 people who don't.

Yes I am talking from my possibly limited experience, but I still think
sluggers are overestimating its use, even I went away from it for a while, I
used to use it back in the early Naughties in trillian, then in miranda, but
I changed jobs and it lost it's importance, I since came back with googles
reader, and the rss podcasting on my phone. It can get too much which even
pushes geeks away, lessening the shear number of users.
There are geeks that don't know about it, don't find it useful.
