RSS wears many a hats - rich site summary, really simple syndication- RSS or even Resource Description Framework (RDF).

RSS is basically a lighter XML format designed for sharing Web content. As it is one of the simplest uses of XML, RSS has become widely distributed. The RSS file can include a logo, a site link, an input box, and multiple news items. Each news item consists of a URL, a title, and a summary.

Because the data is in XML, and not a display language like HTML, RSS information can be flowed into a large number of devices. In addition to being used to create news summary web pages, RSS can be fed into stand-alone news browsers or headline viewers, PDAs, cell phones, email ticklers and even voice updates.

RSS files are created by content publishers and then delivered to people who have subscribed to that feed using a “feed reader” application also called a news aggregator. The feed reader program checks with the originator of the content regularly and if it finds any new content available from a particular site, downloads the information about it, called metadata, into the application automatically.

Kane Kramer is a British inventor and business man. He is credited with the initial invention of the digital audio player which lead the way to Apple Inc.’s popular iPod music player.

In 1979 Kramer filed patents for his newly conceived Digital Audio Player, the IXI. The player was the size of a credit card with a small LCD screen and navigation and volume buttons and would have held data on a solid state memory chip with a capacity of 3:50 minutes worth of audio. Due to the limited nature of solid state memory of the time the IXI was never produced. In 1988 Kramer reportedly had £60,000,000 in orders for the device from the music industry when a coup within Kramer’s company kept him from renewing the IXI’s patent. The patent was voided shortly afterward and Kramer’s designs entered the public domain.

Kramer’s initial report introducing the IXI also contained detailed descriptions of a possible music download service over phone lines. Kramer reasoned that with freedom from the limitations and expense of physical media the music industry would be able to provide the consumer with more released material from more artists on a tighter schedule. Kramer’s system would have also allowed for the downloading of data and software.
