Actually, Jeremy Allaire proposed something called <a href="http://radio.weblogs.com/0113297/2003/10/01.html#a236">RSS-Data</a> a few years ago, it was basically the XML-RPC serialization format, unbundled from the transport. It's still a good idea, moslty because there are so many <a href="http://www.xmlrpc.com/directory/1568/implementations">implementations</a> of XML-RPC, in basically every environment known to scripters. I still think if Amazon provided an XML-RPC interface for S3 it would help drive adoption, and I think Google should support it in their spreadsheet. The two were designed for each other.

The Macintosh build has been available for a few days, and has more or less checked out. This is the first release to include the <a href="http://www.newsriver.org/">NewsRiver</a> aggregator with reading list support, and may turn out to be milestone for the RSS community as well as the OPML community.

Dan Gillmor and I participated in a moderated discussion about the future of blogging. I think it came out pretty well. Esther Dyson asks a pointed question, Om Malik gets a plug, Dan Farber sums it up.

Way beyond AJAX. So <a href="http://radio.userland.com/stories/storyReader$9889#theFunStuff">potentially</a> exciting.
