I have been at "RSS startup". The problem with RSS feeds is that sites (sources) are smart and are using them to BRING visitors back, not to give them away into your favorite RSS reader. A content owner is always a king. You want to own a content, not a pipe.
Sean is talking about building a service that liberates you from visiting MySpace/Facebook/Orcut completely. Needless to say, Facebook won't be happy about such thing and almost certainly won't allow it.
- brlewis 19y agoGoogle search is a pipe. It's doing well. From your "RSS startup" comment I don't think you understand friendfeed. The main reason to go to myspace/facebook/orkut is to waste time looking at your friends' activity. With friendfeed you can do that in one place. For example: http://friendfeed.com/paul http://friendfeed.com/paul Facebook can decide they "won't allow it" and be left out in the cold.
