concerts. They're infrequent enough in my life that it's hard to remember to go check individual websites for David Wilcox, Bruce Cockburn, or Fred Hammond (to name a few). Not to mention having to endure flash nonsense when all i want to know is whether they're coming some place near me some time soon.

Alas, the RSS-savvy probably represent a single digit percentage of their audience at best, so i have no hope of this happening anytime soon. But nearly every musician has gotten a web site these days, so eventually something like this is bound to happen.

No incentive for promoters to do this either: they want to get you onto their site so they can sell you other stuff.

Good News Publishers now provides an RSS Feed for their English Standard Version of the Bible. They've been pushing the web envelope in some interesting directions. There's a 'verse-of-the-day' feed, as well as a verse query. They've had a web service for verse lookup since earlier this year, but as i noted in a previous post (Using Scripture Indexes to Create Posts) it took a bit of work if you wanted to repurpose the text (for example, for a blog entry).  [thanks to The Journal for this item!]

RSS: it's not just for news anymore!
