So yeah, RSS feeds, while they have been around for a long time, can
be considered Web 2.0

Oh geesh, so they are! LOL. I'll go put on my dunce's hat and stand in the corner. *blush*. I was thinking along the lines of newsletter syndication when I read that, Mark, RSS never crossed my mind.
Thanks!

RSS feeds are definitely web 2.0 think of recently you began hearing about podcasts and RSS feeds....about the same time the term web 2.0 starting becoming common design speak, at leastfor me. I think my major problem was I wasn't designing for people who needed/wanted something as dynamic as web 2.0 so I was stuck in a functionality rut. My head wasn't in the sand so much as I wasn't even standing in the sand box. Luckily its pretty easy to get into and more fun feeling to design. Shiny, bright toys for webpages make light work.

I think what it's been with me, purple, is that I'd just not seen enough examples of it up until then to really "get it". I love sites with RSS actually and am a sucker for places like newsvine that always have something new going on. I'm pretty sad in that I can keep Google news in a tab and refresh it all day long to see what's going on in the world. Doesn't take much to make me happy!
I guess I'm a Web 2.0 fan after all and just didn't know it.
Thanks for sharing that, purple.
Are you saying that Web 2.0 toys are less work? That's interesting. I'm being nosy again and wondering why from a layman's perspective. I'd have thought all those extras would have made a designer's job harder.
