About Us

RSSA is a model for connecting people, ideas, and activities at a large scale. It is based on the model of RSS that allows sites to create web feeds of their content that can be then collected by aggregators into a common feed. RSSA is an enabling technology to allow diverse sources on the web, such as blogs, email signatures, videos, web sites, podcasts, wikis, television and radio broadcasts, etc. to attract attention to a common Activity Space. As people and agents interact, their Activity Stream is recorded so that others may see what is being done.This web site is the [Activity Space] for developing RSSA.We seek to create an open systems model for supporting creating a standard, as well as test bed environments that would allow us to try out the protocols and learn how to do them better.[Read our FAQs] to find out more about the initiative, or Join our Mailing List to stay in touch.
