How to reboot RSS | Scripting News

〈問題は後でじゃなく今なのだ・・・〉

[…] the Google Reader approach is wrong, it isn’t giving you what’s new — and that’s all that matters in news.

Succinctly put — news is about what’s new — and that’s it.

Why does Twitter work better for news than Google Reader? Simple, Twitter gives you what’s new now. You don’t have to hunt around to find the newest stuff. And it doesn’t waste your time by telling you how many unread items you have. Who cares. (It’s like asking how many NYT articles you haven’t read. It would be gargantuan. I don’t bother you with the number of Scripting News posts you haven’t read, so why does Google?)
