One of my other blogs, arguably the most popular one, is The Inspired Solo. From time to time, I’ll cross-post items of interest that I’ve published at one blog that might be of interest to readers of another. When I do, I’ll preface the subject as I’ve done here: “At [name of other blog].”
Today’s cross-post is to the first item in a series I’m planning on RSS — the technology that allows content to be syndicated and shared across the web in an easily-reproduced and -read format. The post was inspired by friend and blog designer par excellence Cory Miller (who designed the TIS blog) who introduced me to RSSDay.
Interestingly enough, Cory’s introduction came in the form of a Twitter “tweet” — a short (140 character) message that’s the hallmark of Twitter, usually answering the question “What are you doing?” That’s interesting because, if you’ll look to the right on this page, in the sidebar you’ll note something that looks like a pad of paper on which are written words comprising a “tweet” of my own. That’s because Twitter allows users to syndicate their own tweets into their blogs using — tada! — RSS.
