John Robb has an interesting idea with an example on how RSS can make for more useful classified ads: “I would love it if the NYTimes classifieds (as well as the Boston Globe for me) were available as keyword sorted RSS feeds. Just put in your search terms: automobile, BMW, X5, 2001, 200 mi (the distance between me and seller) and get all new entries on that topic automatically. It’s clear that newspapers could reinvent their business models by making long term connections in this way.”
