If Steven Cohen was dead he'd be rolling over in his grave
In the you've got to be kidding me category here's software that turns RSS into e-mail, completely defeating the purpose of RSS.
"Why re-invent the wheel or run yet-another-application to read your stuff? Create another set of folders, sub-folders, filtering, spam-filter training,... when your existing E-mail application has done it all - tried and tested - and finally just the way you like it?"
And the best line on the site:
“it actually seems to work”
Now how's that for an endorsement?
Update: Reading that first quote again I noticed that it's full of inaccuracies.
- Aggregators automatically put each feed into it's own folder. No folder creation or "filtering" necessary.
- Uh, spam from an RSS feed? Since when?
- Nevermind the fact that since there's no e-mail address involved, RSS feeds can't be a new way for spammers to get your address and send you more.
Please people, I beg you, do not use a service such as this.
