RSS recognition: LINK tags as important as little orange icon
I continue to be surprised at many of the sites that have "openly embraced" syndication of their content through RSS, merely using the little orange icons on their web pages, but tragically neglecting to also reference their feed URL(s) in LINK tags within the page's source.
Modern browsers like Firefox, Opera and Safari have built-in auto-discovery RSS readers that detect the presence of this additional information and allow for single-click subscription to a feed, and assumedly the forthcoming IE 7 will, too. It's a simple addition to a page that shouldn't be overlooked.
