RSS is already wildly popular,
as can be seen from recent aquisition activity (See Yahoo and
Konfabulator). For companies that have content to push, like
Yahoo, its easy to see why. Fergus Burns of Nooked has more.
The guys at nooked are looking beyond straight feeds and are looking at
RSS as a new way to disemenate corporate information like press
releases and other content and even as a replacement for email in
certain circumstances. Interesting stuff.
Wait, did someone say Corporate
Communications? Isn't that what Ryarc Media Systems do?
Isn't RSS a bit like Subscribe, Push and Play? And isn't
that what digital signage applications do?
Well its true that
CampaignManager is RSS enabled. As part of our 'ticker'
functionality we allow you to consume RSS feeds to drive up to the
second info to your digital sign. (See image)

Reasonably nifty, if not exactly ground
breaking. But Nooked's thinking on RSS which goes beyond the
immediate got me thinking about how RSS can work with Digital
Signage... Watch this space.
