Let’s retire RSS when they retire Google Reader

"More important, pushing all these RSS readers back to websites will enable publishers to create more revenue."<p>That's ... boring. Not everyone demands that people watch advertising scattered around the page. Jimmy Maher's "The Digital Antiquarian: an ongoing history of computer entertainment" is an in-depth, high-quality series of essays. It's a (mostly) self-funded labor of love, and a example of something that fits RSS well.

Maybe instead retire bloggers who don't understand the difference between a data syndication format and an app or brand?

Better idea: let's retire Pando Daily and their brain-dead bloggers when they retire Google Reader.
