The news is generally good because, as the article says, it can increase the use of this technology on the Internet, however, I’m a little skeptical about its final appearance in Chrome (not as an experiment): I’ve been using it for years: at the moment it’s the best way to keep up-to-date on topics and sites you’re interested in, and it saves you time (if a site supports RSS). > Now You: do you use RSS? What is your take on Google’s plan? Neither email newsletters nor notifications support this. RSS is still one of the best options, in my opinion the best, when it comes to keeping an eye on the publications of a large number of sites on the Internet. Introducing RSS to a wider audience, albeit without all the technicalities, is something that could give the technology a boost. Since it is bare bones, it seems likely that Google will add basic unsubscribe options but no advanced features such as support for importing or exporting a list of feeds (OPML is the standard for that). Google does not reveal anything else about the new functionality especially the management options will be interesting. Only the title, source, time of publication, and a screenshot or icon, are displayed on the following page. Chrome does not mention RSS in any way, nor other terms such as feed or XML.Ī new "following" tab is added to Chrome's new tab page that lists posts in chronological order. Open the menu in Chrome and select the "follow" option in the menu to add it to the list of subscribed feeds. Google's integration allows users to follow sites that support RSS with just two taps.
