Story RSS Feed Alternative TV News Consumption
Dave Winer believes is the future for that industry. My question is why do I have to go to the TV at all? He believes it’s another form of the method of consuming news (content in general). My question again is why do I have to go to the TV at all? I would like a if you please.
I agree with Dave but how can you implement through a TV? Not sure if possible with current state of interactive TV and how does the content provider continue to monetize the content/audience? As more supporting RSS and get added to entertainment centers, the opportunity to deliver and monetize a story feed grows.
The scenario is possible now. What you need:
- Content management system producing a feed containing the articles, audio, and video associated to a specific story.
- A centrally managed subscription/OPML file
- Device capable of updating it’s subscriptions using the central subscription/OPML file
So the CMS system can produce the story feed. Dave’s ”” can provide a hosted OPML file but likely new types a personalized, protected OPML repositories (from Google, Yahoo, etc or private vendors) will emerge. Next comes the for using the central OPML file to add the latest subscriptions to specific story feeds. This is different from what offers. Basically it’s IMAP for RSS.
When on CNN, you add the Virginia Tech story feed to IE7 which then updates the central OPML with the subscription information. The next time you sit down in front of the TV, check the Apple TV RSS reader for the latest Virginia Tech stories. Read, watch or listen. Start using or video monetization tools allowing publisher to offer advertisers solutions for time-shifted consumption.
Wait and see.

Welcome!
Syndication breaks down the current state of syndication to help publishers, marketers, and search providers get a "common sense" education on what is possible, who might be stretching the truth, and what is just plain crap. Feedback greatly appreciated.
