What I find particularly interesting in the spec is the editors list.
This has the potential to create cool and useful stuff, of course, but (IMO) it will be used mostly for advertising. Guess who's around the spec? Google and two telcos, of course.
- tokenizerrr 12y agoI'm not sure how this would be used for advertising? This is about pushing messages to the user agent when it is not actively visiting a page. Ads are actively requested when you view a page, there is no need for push there.
- paulojreis 12y agoSo "they" can reach you, even if you don't visit. I guess it will be used to "remind" or notify you of all new posts/entries/content/everything. From there, it can move fast to notifying you about a new sponsor (or just saying who sponsored the new post). Of course, it will need user approval, so the problem is (I hope) minimized (but just wait for the amount of Google+ "friend invites" notifications you will receive, even if you visited it only once).
