Who pays for this blog? I receive no fees, considerations, etc. etc. for the posts on this blog nor do I have any plans to accept any. My salary is paid by Canwest Global Communications Corp. I work for that company as the Ottawa-based National Affairs Correspondent for Canwest News Service. The blog publishing platform used here is called Blogware and it's developed by Tucows Inc. of Toronto, Ontario, Canada. My use of Blogware should not be taken as an endorsement of that company. Like all Blogware users, I do not pay any fees for the use of this service. I participate in program. Google pays me some money and, for that, I give Google some space on this site to display ads. Google sells those ads and Google, not me, decides what advertising content you are seeing. I do not filter these ads and take no responsibility for them. Readers should not assume I endorse any of the products or services advertised here. If you think other disclosures are appropriate in this space, I'd like to hear from you. All of my contact details are always at www.davidakin.com You can read more about this section |
Re: Globe and Mail does RSS
by

It's nice the Globe is started to syndicate a bit more, and to do so publicly. People might not be aware that the GAM has been syndicating with a version of RSS for quite some time now -- Google shows references to them at least as far back as June 2003. It used to be that you had to register for their headlines service to get the URL of all the feeds, which is: http://www.theglobeandmail.com/generated/headlines/rdf/
These old feels are RSS 0.90 (one of the many, versions of RSS). These new feeds are RSS 2.0, and they include the first sentence of articles, whereas the old feeds only have headlines. More text would be VERY NICE.
So an improvement, but not such a big deal for people who've been in-the-know for a while.
