RSS feeds
provide abstracts of frequently updated material (e.g. news, blogs) on the Web
in a standardized format. In BSCW, RSS feed objects are special folders that
store the latest abstracts of an RSS feed as RSS articles. The selection
may be updated by a
action. Individual RSS articles may be copied from a RSS feed folder and pasted
to another place as URL objects that contain the abstract in their description
and a link to the original article.
