Semi-lattice Relationships Through RSS Aggregation

"With the use of RSS it is possible not only for blogs to exist in a semi-lattice relationship online but also for users to access their information in a semi-latticed sense where RSS feeds can be rearranged, ordered or, perhaps most notably, received in what the co-creator of RSS, Dave Winer, calls a 'river of news' aggregator [Winer, 2005]. As a result of this ease of management of large amounts of information and complete control over subscription to that, the number of potential interrelationships between writer and reader is almost unlimited and drawn from control being centred on the user."
(James Farmer 2005, Deakin University)
