Dark Clouds Wanted
Posts like this one are important now that rssCloud has gained some spotlight time.

This is good because it fleshes out important issues and realities. I personally think that Aggregators that live in the cloud (ie. Google Reader, Brizzly, LazyFeed) are the first to benefit from real-time protocols since they do not have the firewall related issues that a local desktop application may have in communicating with cloud hubs on certain ports.
Cloud-based RSS Readers are fine with me. I have not used a desktop app for RSS in a long time. But regardless, it’s important as it relates to the crop of twitter clients that may end up supporting real-time RSS and most twitter users use these apps as opposed to web apps.
I have more info and thoughts to share but short on time today. Will continue this soon and I hope more posts like the one I have referenced bubble up soon.
