It should've been "Feeds Day" except that it doesn't sound too techy.. it's almost like it has something to do with world hunger or the poultry business.. Any ideas?

I still haven't found a valid reason for it. On the bright side, at least there's some advocacy for awareness. Hi JC, I complained about this the RSS bias in Wisdump (linked to it in the post).

Example, the "FEED Icon" is neutral, it wasn't called as "RSS Icon" like what they did on their campaign site, trying hard to own a neutral icon. I won't support them. From reading their site, I can sense a strong sentiment of being anti-Atom format. It's the usual "format wars". Coz, if RSS is as popular as pro-RSS people claim, then what's the point of campaigning for it? And why try to own the "Feed" Icon as an "RSS Icon"? It's just a campaign about 'format wars'. If the campaign is about information and education - target: non-techie people, then they should have called it the XML Feed Awareness Campaign. I chose Atom, not just because it's the standard, but because of other important features and matters as well (too long to write here). I will only support Atom or "Neutral" campaigns ;) Anyway, thanks for the heads up :p Well, for any Standards-nerd, Atom 1.0 is the choice, Atom is ‘a’ and ‘the’ standard. ;)
