rss, where are thou?

"Syndication is key. I have become such a snob that I won't read a blog if I can't dump it into my BlogLines account. Okay, snob is a bit harsh. It is more about convenience. I don't have time to search out every nifty blog I come across every day to see if there is a new post. I want it delivered to me. When I find a new blog I enjoy, the first thing I do is scour the sidebars for a link to syndication. No syndication, no subscription. The blogger loses out on higher readership & I lose out on reading some awesome posts. And so I'll end with a simple plea to all bloggers - check your sidebar. Do you link to your feed? Is it easy to find? If not, why?" [so this is mass communication?, via Scripting News]

Kaye, you're not alone! In fact, I think we need a badge....

Update: heh… Paul Beard answered the call. Here’s an “RSS Bigot” badge! I’ve added it to my pages at the bottom of the right-hand column. Thanks, Paul!

Here's a nice collection of links on thesauri, taxonomies, ontologies and facets.
