Since that is the case a very small % of programs had full write-ups for galleries, most only had short descriptions. So now some programs have to build 1000?s of blog posts for galleries, it?s a huge project that gets put in line with other projects.
100?s of programs will be coming out with feeds in the next year. As the standard starts to get set in the industry it will catch on to others. The entire feed world is still very new to almost everyone. 10% of the programs have feeds, and pretty much all them are starting to improve on what they have.
Once a standard starts to get set and people get educated on how to really build and properly use feeds you will find that software like feedwordpress and most other 3rd party readers won?t be needed. It isn?t a standard for programs to follow, it?s a standard that will happen once everyone realizes what feeds can really be used for.

you are totally correct, the future is only going to get better for rss ;)
I guess I am just really vocal and harsh at times because I see all these paysites with kickass update text and pics that could easily just be thrown into a rss script at the same time the paysite updates, and all programs do is pay someone hundreds, sometimes thousands of dollars, to put out a line of text and sometimes a thumb
take this for example:
http://www.herfirstanalsex.com/s1/index.html
that is KILLER content for an rss feed, and I imagine that is run from a cms of some sort, and almost every cms now has rss capabilites...so why not just take those 4 thumbs, and that big description, and create a killer feed? it seems like such the logical thing to do...but instead sponsors (and not just top bucks) will create a whole new feed and never touch those paysite updates...LOL
