Frustrated by chasing down endless — and endlessly changing — information, some corporations are turning to RSS technology.
Yasmin Ghahremani, CFO Magazine
July 1, 2006
In the article you write that "the RSS system automatically sends E-mail notifications to pertinent Campus Televideo employees". This is about as wrong as it gets on the distinction between RSS and e-mail. RSS is not an e-mail system, although, as you hint at, some e-mail clients can be used as an RSS reader. The fundamental difference between an e-mail system and an RSS-based system is that the reader controls whether they receive an RSS feed, whereas the sender controls whether an e-mail is sent (and therefore received).
