Atom Usenet Feeds

Google, in their new Google Groups beta test, are offering Atom feeds for Usenet groups.

As a certain someone is known to say - bing!

  • Hmm. This might be the move that will bring Atom to the mainstream. Until now it has been seen (by me at least :) as rather unpopular. But if Google throws its backing behind it, who knows what will happen. RSS Wars?

  • Google Groups always filters out the binary groups. It’s text only.



    But as far as adding Atom feeds for the binary groups, let me the first to say: OH SNAP!



    My Bloglines is going to explode now. Letmetellya.

  • Just a long shot, but I assume they don’t give access to the binary groups.
