Book Review
The RSS and the Atom specifications are important for any web application developer today. They open up interesting new application integration options. The book "RSS and Atom in Action" is, in the "in Action" series style, very well written.
It starts with a case study that most developers will find relevant to them in their everyday environment. The writing style is easy and the content builds up slowly in complexity as the book progresses. The examples are so simple and yet demonstrate the technology in sufficient detail. The flow of the book just makes you feel that you want to try every example and technology that has been explained.
The book actually goes out and shows the power of RSS and some of the possible applications that the web is starting to see of the specification. It helps set a trend that innovative minds can pick up to create exciting applications.
Overall, a must read for anyone who wants to get a taste of the RSS and Atom technologies.
