Finally! Google to Offer RSS Feeds for Web Search Results (106)
on
ReadWriteWeb (4871) permalink
A rumor that's been floating around the web lately is that Google will offer RSS feeds for new results in basic web search. Today Search Engine Land confirmed that Google will "soon" offer this functionality. Why is this big news? Because there's no better way to keep track of new mentions of a company, person or concept online than through RSS. As Search Engine Land's Matt McGee points out in his post, Google is the ...Shared by abrudtkuhl (24) Adam Maldonado (229) Aditya Kavoor (4) aemkei (32) AJ (225) Alan Dean (54) Alex Dumitru (271) Alex Whyke (27) Anders (21) Andrew Rodrigues (38) Anton Johansson (51) arjo (87) Badam (93) Bill Welense (6) billrod (30) bittin (285) Brad Brown Jr. (20) Brian (148) Bruno Campagnolo de Paula (42) Carissa (32) charles (297) Chris Dawson (1) Cindy (20) Crowdadmin (14) Dave Winer (27) Diego C (21) Dion Rodrigues (16) Donald Jenkins (6) Doug (67) doug coleman (5) Ed Cox (5) Edwin Khodabakchian (20) Ehsan (24) Erwin Tang Yew Hon (96) Fabian Mohr (6) Farzin (42) Florent Solt (37) Gary (22) gastaoss (28) Geert De Laet (13) HUNG (105) iAlja (69) Jake (26) James Dorminey (22) Jamie Diamond (11) Jason Boucher (3) Jay (19) Jean-Philippe Sirois (11) Jeff (61) Jim (17) John Boitnott (90) Josh Bancroft (31) kamandal (666) keith (85) Kenji (59) kev (107) Kevin_Jim (36) Kobi (6) LouCypher (76) lovemorgul (681) LUCCHINA (271) marcell (29) Mark Greenfield (4) MeghnaK (853) metaeuphoria (20) Michael (114) Michael Kogelman (13) Mike Abundo (25) mridul (41) Muhammad Saleem (229) Mushin (53) Nathan Rome (2) Neil Williams (16) Neko (25) Øystein Fledsberg (12) Page (22) Paul Dunay (31) Paul Edwards (60) PK (1) Quinn (30) renganathan (97) Rich (26) Roger Kondrat (27) Ronan Menton (14) rony john (359) Samuel (64) sean h (50) Sean McBride (115) Sébastien BOLLINGH (6) Seppe vanden Broucke (6) Simon Wren (23) Sung Choi (5) Tim (27) Trevor Wermund (278) Tyson Williams (94) ultraviolet (34) Vincent Ballut (78) Vincent Wright (5) w0lfh0und (431) Who Knows?

Personal finance site Mint.com has gathered data showing that its users spent an average of $300 less per month in August than in January this year — a 6 percent drop suggesting that the site’s 500,000 users are adjusting to the economic downturn (at least a little better than Wall Street).

You're looking at the BlackBerry Application Center, RIM's answer to Apple's App Store and Google's Android Market. Same basic concept as the other two—you browse and buy applications that enhance your BlackBerry experience. The Application Center—we're running out of variants of the term “application store!”—is set to debut with the BlackBerry Storm software version 4.7. All application data will be stored at the carriers' locale; RIM is totally out of the loop as far as ...Shared by Alex (25) BillDeys (19) Brian Junyor (52) Charles (22) Chuck LeDuc (19) Daniel W.

- Chuck LeDuc said: "All application data will be stored at the carriers' locale; RIM is totally out of the loop as far as that goes. It's supposed to differentiate the Application Center from the App Store in that regard—carriers can put the applications they want on their own little store." So you have to bribe each carrier individually. And this solves what, exactly?
