It's going to be a busy few weeks starting at the end of the month, beginning with a discussion I'm leading at Mix 07 at the Venetian in Las Vegas on April 30 at 3PM. The topic is how to design a perfect podcast player, but I have a hunch we'll branch out into other topics as well. Unlike the other sessions at the conference, there will be no panel and no audience. I will speak for a few minutes to get some discussion topics out there, and then we'll see what's on everyone's minds. We'll make sure the discussion has an online presence, maybe someone will even live-webcast it.

"RSS was born in 1997 out of the confluence of Dave Winer's 'Really Simple Syndication' technology, used to push out blog updates, and Netscape's 'Rich Site Summary', which allowed users to create custom Netscape home pages with regularly updated data flows." - Tim O'Reilly.
