I've tweaked my RSS a bit. You should now see RSS 1.0 and 2.0. In addition, if you set up an RSS feed from this site, you should now see the full text of the post and not just an excerpt. I still need to figure out how to get the formatting right, but I'm getting there.
For my money RSS 1.0 is nicer that 2.0. I am just not impressed with XML, even if it is Microsoft's idea. I think of it more as a variant record structure and I've never been a big fan variant records. Normalized databases are much easier to deal with.
I worked on a client's system in which he is attempting to export orders from his Yahoo store and import them into Great Plains. The Yahoo store allows you to export in "comma separated values" or XML. XML looked nicer out of the gate. However, I wound up using the CSV. It was just easier to use and gave me a better import.
