It appears that the nickname “webfeed,” coined via a CONTENTIOUS contest earlier this year, is starting to stick in the mainstream media
My fellow blogger Steve Rubel was kind enough to point out over the weekend (while I was camping) that an Aug. 14 article by Reuters reporter Eric Auchard, Livewire: All-You-Can-Eat Headlines Served Online, features a prominent use of “webfeed.”
Here’s the relevant excerpt…
The second full paragraph of Auchard’s story is:
“Internet readers can devour the latest headlines from publishers large and small, using RSS (Really Simple Syndication) or “webfeeds” to view them on custom web pages tailored to their interests, or on separate software that works on a PC.”
Hey, not bad!
