This is important somehow. It might have something to do with my post on situational awareness, not exactly sure. I remember saying before that RSS needs to have the ability to be archived and searched but does it? If it is relaying situational awareness information, the information is only useful in the here and now. If you missed it, you missed it. As Dave said, if it’s important, it will pop up again (because people will be relaying more info with time).
