Would you mind letting people know about the ATOM format as well? The sentence 1. What is a feed? (a.k.a. RSS) is wrong. It is not "a.k.a. RSS". It must be "What is Really Simple Syndication (a.k.a. RSS)?" ATOM,

I wonder, why nobody mentioned Patrice Bellard's BPG[1]. It is based on HEVC and can be supported in any browser via a Javascript. From his website: BPG (Better Portable Graphics) is a new image format. Its purpose is to replace t
