No. They dont. You'll pry Google Reader from my cold dead hands.
I would like to have seen Marc flesh out this argument.
- marcamillion 16y agoI hear you....but I respectfully disagree. I have not seen RSS feed readers gain momentum as the hype around them suggested they might. Some people like them, some don't. I guess you can tell which camp I am in ;)
- brianwillis 16y agoI agree that they haven't gained momentum or mainstream acceptance, and I think that they probably never will. My parents will certainly never subscribe to an RSS feed. However, just because feed readers aren't widely used doesn't mean they aren't incredibly useful to certain people.
- teaspoon 16y agoYou're acknowledging that RSS performs the same general function as Digg v4, that you can't identify any concrete differences between the two, and that RSS readers ultimately didn't "gain momentum". How does that square with an argument that Digg v4 is going to be "game-changing"?
- marcamillion 16y agoDid you even READ the post, or are you just commenting on the comments? I thought I laid out the argument pretty clearly. Let me know if I am mistaken.
