Whats the difference in format?

I see xml rss and other formats for feeds.
What is the difference and does one have more limitations than the other?

Thanks for that.
I guess the long and short of it is that rss got patented or copyrited so xml (atom) is an alternative.
Am i right?

Yup. Thats right. By Harvard.

They show some other differences like
Quote:
RSS 2.0 requires feed-level title, link, and description. RSS 2.0 does not require that any of the fields of individual items in a feed be present.

Atom 1.0 requires that both feeds and entries include a title (which may be empty), a unique identifier, and a last-updated timestamp.
Comments on this post
mick.sawyer agrees: I will spread you some love for giving me that link - have a 5
