2008 is the “Year of RSS”…for the 5th Year in a Row
Back in late 2006, I wrote an article about how they’ve been predicting that for the fourth year in a row, someone has declared that “this is the year RSS will be big!”.
I also wrote:
Perhaps I should start a betting pool on when the pundits will stop predicting that RSS will go mainstream next year. I’ll put money down on 2009. Any takers?
I’m glad I didn’t put money down on 2008, as someone has declared 2008 as the “Year of RSS”. Yes, it was a blog called Enterprise RSS, but still…
I think that “The Year of RSS” is turning into “The Rapture” — always imminent, but never actually coming to pass.
