Microsoft Proposes RSS Extension 234
An anonymous reader writes "Microsoft Chief Technical Officer Ray Ozzie said this week that his company is working on a new extension to RSS that would help users with different contact and calendar software and services synchronize each other's information." From the article: "If this sounds familiar to those using IBM's Lotus Notes, it should. SSE was conceived after Microsoft's recently recruited chief technology officer Ray Ozzie brainstormed with members of the Exchange, Outlook, MSN, Windows Mobile and Messenger Communicator product teams shortly after he joined."

Microsoft, sit down, and let's hear from someone else.

US Corporations have to fight like hell these days to get their voices heard by Congress, and it's just unfair to not grant them equal rights! You progressives are all about "civil liberties, blah blah", so why don't you unite this country and [wait] Hey look! - There's a WAR over there...! I'm pulling for the guys in the grey outfits!
