RSS appears to have conquered the last hurdle in becoming the industry syndication standard.
Microsoft's inclusion of RSS into the newest version of Internet Explorer and reports that RSS will be in Longhorn's coming release appears to be the final nail in the coffin of the Atom specification. Even Atom's steadfast supporter Google, appears to have seen the light. Google had previously acquired Blogger, a popular blogging tool that uses the Atom specification to syndicate the contents of blogs created on the Blogger platform. In the past Google had strategically steered clear of endorsing the RSS specification hoping that Atom, would take hold.
Google's recent new service that allows web surfers to monitor Google News using either RSS or Atom feeds, appears to be an acknowledgment that perhaps in purchasing Blogger, they chose the wrong specification.

A very important question arises in the early stages of development of a web site. What would be the most appropriate domain name? Domain names are representative of the address for a web site, and there is a rising trend of incidents of disputes over domain name registration with increased usage of the Internet.
There are numerous factors that have led to a crisis of domain registration disputes and this, in turn, has led to a rapid increase in the reported cases of infringement of domain names. Several companies have taken legal action against other companies or individuals over alleged copyright violation on the domain names.

RSS feeds have yet to hit the mainstream, but they are beginning to appear on prominent web sites including CNN, MSNBC, Yahoo, and even Google. While many sites are now publishing their own RSS feed, they fail to pursue the important step of promoting it.
RSS feeds have been growing steadily in popularity throughout the year. They have begun appearing on almost every news related source, and now even corporate web pages. While more businesses begin to cater to the opportunity of creating an RSS feed, many do not fully understand their exact usage. It is as if publishing an RSS feed will magically create traffic and pull constant visitors to their site. Maybe they believe the web search engine robots will pull and distribute the feeds. However, the truth is that most major search engines today do not yet incorporate RSS feeds into their main search engine results. They may completely skip over the RSS feed link when spidering a site. However, there is a world available that these new RSS users are not yet aware of. It is the world of RSS search engines.

Successful search engine marketing is dependent on the identification and understanding of a website's target audiences, ensuring that the target audience will find the website, and that the website will provide the information and user experience being sought by them.
For a number of different types of vendors, there are two distinct website visitor groups involved in the buying funnel: Researchers and Decision Makers. For some vendors the Researchers are low to mid-management personnel gathering information for a C-level (CEO, COO, CFO, CIO, etc) decision. For other vendors the Researchers are non-management and the Decision Makers are at the purchase agent level. There are also vendors who experience several levels of researches from non-management through mid-management with the decisions finally being made at the C-level or in committee.

In the past I've never really paid much attention to security issues when it comes to user names and passwords. Frankly I figured it was all a lot of overblown hype. This led to an unfortunate incident that involved my website being attacked, apparently by a skillful youth with a propensity for mischief.
The main security flaw with my website was probably the simple fact that the username and password were exactly the same. Granted I did realize that this wasn't highly intelligent but I didn't have the power to change it myself, and I didn't think it really mattered enough to bother about it. Having an identical username and password is a massive "no-no" in computer security. Your username and password should not even be related along the same line of thought. A username of "Dragon" and a password of "Fire" is not a secure combination.
