y someone asked about the word syndication and what it means in
the blog world. Prompted by a question I received, here are some more
thoughts on the use of “Syndicate this Site” and what it
means to have and use an RSS feed.
Typically “syndicate this site” means that the site
owner has an XML feed (RSS and ATOM are the popular formats) that you can use to
read their content. While syndication in the offline world refers to
the fact that you can purchase certain content (comics, old TV reruns) for use
in your publication, bloggers don’t often think of it that
way.
For a variety of reasons, the word syndicate is misused by
bloggers. What a blogger means is that they offer a feed that can be
used to read their site in a news reader or on a site like
My Yahoo or Blo
glines that aggregates feeds. They don’t typically mean that
you can use their feed on your commercial site.
That said, if you contact some of these blogs, you may be able to
get permission from them to use their material on your site with
attribution. Some bloggers are open to this and some aren’t. The
answer you get will depend greatly on what you intend to do with the
feed, who the blogger is, and how nicely you ask.

thinks
we should stop using the word "syndication" to describe what we
do with RSS/Atom feeds. I disagree. He's right that what's
happening now online is different than the classic print syndication
model. But the concept of syndication has always been broader
than that. As I
wrote
several years ago in the Harvard Business Review (and before that in
Release 1.0), it's a perfect way to describe the emerging business
model of the Internet economy.

Syndication: How to Easily Syndicate Your Web Content: Here's an
extremely well-done article on using JavaScript includes to syndicate
your content. Very in-depth with many code samples and diagrams.
If you are syndicating to websites that are not under your
control, you don't know that the webmaster will have the expertise to
implement a syndication strategy using XML. You might be syndicating
to a small company that used FrontPage to make the website; they
certainly can't set up a dynamic process to fetch an XML feed from
your site, cache it, and integrate the data into their
site.
I'm almost more impressed with the presentation of the article than
with the content. We need more Web content like this.

Thursday, June 24: I'll be joining some very interesting people (

interesting, useful applications for RSS and RSS-like tools are out
there or just around the corner?

Private Syndication
Private Syndication
02/01/2005 09:44 PMOver at the ZD BTL space, David Berlind
writes good stuff on something I’ve been
talking about for a long time, private syndication feeds. My favorite
examples have been feeds from my bank account or credit card or stock
portfolio, but David has another for people like EBay, who can no
longer email their customers because everyone receiving such an email
assumes it’s a phishing attempt (it usually is). David wonders if
existing RSS-based systems can scale up for mass one-to-one usage; the
answer is “yes, obviously”;
post-and-poll
(as in syndication) is mechanically simpler than store-and-forward (as
in email), it’ll scale just fine. One detail: I think that for this
kind of content-critical, all-business feed, Atom is a more attractive
choice than any of the RSS flavors.

"Since I can't seem to find any way to contact the organization
behind missingkids.com, I'll
post my comment to them here. Please have someone in your web
department create an RSS feed of missing
children. I am confident all aggregator developers will add it to
their default list of feeds, increasing the chance of finding more
kids quicker." [Adam Curry:

Not only would it be great to have this kind of feed as a default
in news aggregators, but the pictures could easily be syndicated on
any web site.
XHTML For Syndication Sucks
XHTML For Syndication Sucks
12/03/2002 11:46 AMI've been reading a lot lately about using XHTML
instead of RSS for syndication of a web site in a news aggregator.
The statement is this:
All that would be needed is standardization of names and classes
for page elements like DIVs and headers. A post/entry title would
always be an H3, with a class set to "title", for example. Permanent
links would always be P tags with their classes set to "permalink".
Simple.
To me, this is not only a terrible idea, but a lazy idea. (But, then
again, I could be speaking hastily.) How hard is it to create an RSS
file? How hard is it to setup MT? Why would I want to give up the
right to name my .title class .blogtitle or .articletitle? I like RSS,
it works well, and is automatically generated for me, as well as for
everybody who has a use for it.
So I guess the whole point of using XHTML for syndication is to get
away from having to type in http://noeljackson.com/index.xml instead
of just pointing your aggregator to the base URL
(http://noeljackson.com). But wait a sec isn't that what the <link
rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml" title="RSS"
href="http://www.noeljackson.com/index.xml" /> tag is for?
The only plus is not having to maintain multiple files. But the same
problem occurs, you have to mark-up your XHTML according to someone
elses specs, just like with RSS. Except with RSS you can separate your
content from your design, which makes RSS syndication faster than
XHTML and to me it seems like a "cleaner" idea. I don't know about
you, but I definitely don't want to see XHTML become the next
syndication form. Don't hate me for saying that, but I just think
there are better ways to do it. Having pure XML and an XSLT stylsheet
for XHTML and RSS seems like the best way to do it to me. I just wish
XSLT stylesheets could be easier to implement on the client side. Oh
bother, I sure hope RSS sticks around.
HTTP for syndication consumers
HTTP for syndication consumers
04/09/2004 03:54 PMIt seems to me that there is a real need for a one stop shop for the
information necessary to understand the 'how' behind syndicating,
archiving and editing episodic web sites. Specs are good, but
they
only tend to cover what is not covered by other specifications.
Blogs and mailing lists often provide a much needed missing context
for
the information, but the discussions found there are often
inconclusive
and it is virtually impossible to determine if the decisions made have
been superseded. Here's a first installment.
