RSS
As I see more and more RSS icons popping up on pages all over the place, there's two things I'd like to see to make life easier.
Firstly, not many people are making use of the
feed:// protocol in their URLs. I guess it's early days yet, but it's so much easier to simply click on the URL and have it automatically added to your subscriptions than to go through the whole copy, new feed, paste rigamarole.
Secondly, I'd like a small application I can run that registers itself for the feed protocol (or even a Firefox plugin that keeps an eye out for RSS), which can update my
NetNewsWire subscriptions without having to start up NetNewsWire itself. I love NNW, but I have so much running that I really can't spare the memory to keep it in the background.
Feel free to tell me that such an application already exists ;-)
