Linkato nel commento 58 a http://iamarf.org/2013/04/20/racconti-ltis13/ - ma dov'è che l'avevi utilizzato prima, Andreas? Anche se del 2007, questo tutorial mi sembra ancora valido - cioè non è che l'XML di per sé, cioè in applicazioni come i feed oppure i podcast sia cambiato nel frattempo, ma quel che è cambiato è la sua integrazione con l'html e javascript nelle pagine web attuali, e quindi la capacità dei browser di fornirne una versione per umani, o sbaglio?

Software and websites can understand the data contained in RSS feeds and make it available to people on personalized websites, through software known as news aggregators, even through email.
