Enrique Dans on RSS

Enrique Dans, in a bit on Medium about Feedly, on RSS:

I simply cannot understand why RSS readers are not used by everybody. I think that any user, from the professional to the casual, can benefit from having a series of information sources, pages, and alerts set up in an orderly manner in a feeds reader. Each time I explain the concept to a class, my students seem very interested, but I then notice that they very few of them bother to adopt the habit.

Iโ€™m with you Enrique. Every single person should take advantage of RSS. And many do without knowing it. Flipboard, Facebook Paper, and so much more use RSS under-the-hood and people have no idea.

I use, and pay for, Feedly. It isnโ€™t the best reader Iโ€™ve ever used however it is getting better all the time. And the premium features are worth paying for.
