"Developers" or average Joe's? Most people I know don't know what push notifications are. RSS? "Some kind of gov agency?". Sharing? "Facebook button!". And, no, they aren't idiots, they just don't care and see any of that. ;)

And, no, they aren't idiots, they just don't care and see any of that. ;) I think this leaves out a middle ground. The people who design web pages love this stuff, either business decision-makers (because they think it improves metrics) or programmers (because it's a cool way to implement the area of their technological expertise)—but you can be a techie, know exactly what all these things are, and not want them. (RSS is a funny one to see on the list. It's practically ancient, and most browsers seem to have given up on integrating it—which is a shame, because it's a low-flash solution to a real problem and is user-centered and -controlled.)
