My RSS feed now realtime tks to wordpress.com for implementing rsscloud
September 15, 2009 by mseyfangAnother good reason to use hosted wordpress.com – the good folks have already implemented realtime RSS extensions for me using Dave Winer’s rsscloud method.
Having just clued-in to the latest on realtime RSS reading about TypePad implementing the alternative pubsubhububb I set out to find out what is required to get this happening on my wordpress blog. If you host your own you need to install the plug-in. On wordpress.com tis already implemented – take a look at the source of my RSS feed and search for ‘cloud’.
What’s the big deal. Well to paraphrase TechCrunch – it is now possible to de-centralise realtime, which means we might finally get some of the cool stuff back from centralised services like twitter.
This could also mean the beginning of a new format war for the real-time web, reminiscent of the old RSS vs Atom battles. Another groups of developers, lead by Brad Fitzpatrick, published a format and cloud hub known as pubsubhubbub
, which is now being supported by Google Reader. There is sure to be much discussion of WordPress.com falling into the RSSCloud camp, and which protocol/format/method etc. is better than the other (a debate we will engage in on this blog, no doubt).
Services such as Twitter and Friendfeed centralize real-time data and updates. RSSCloud and broader support of such a protocol is a step in the direction of decentralizing such services.
