Back to the Future with RSS I like the fact that Jon Udell is playing around with his RSS feed. I was suprised recently at how simple yet lacking the RSS spec is. I really wish RSS feeds would start using the [pubDate] tag (which was introduced in RSS 0.93 as far as I can tell) to date their postings. I'm thinking about programming my own aggregator and it only makes sense that entries (items) are defined with a date. Radio for instance shows me a date for an item when it was scanned but it doesn't display when the item was posted (unless of course it does if a pubdate is defined). That is seriously lacking as far as I'm concerned. It really bothers me when I read an article (news or otherwise) on the net and there is no date attached to it. It is as good as garbage to me in that case.   3:35:28 PM     Groove security test This is good to know: Although most of the technical terms are abacadabra to me, it seems that Groove's security is thoroughly tested.;-) [Jeroen Bekkers' Groove Weblog]   12:15:19 PM
