Ah the 3 month article rotation that RSS is dead. Yet I use RSS and Atom feeds as much as I did in the Google Reader days and the IndieWeb is starting to get hot as people finally realize publishing just in silos is a bad idea. Do not bother clicking on this regurgitated nonsense.
Social media tried to kill RSS because they wanted you on their site. Feeds are very much alive and the best content is far from Facebook or Twitter.
