Simple Sharing Extensions (SSE) from Microsoft

Microsoft introduced a new specification that extends RSS. It’s called SSE and I’m not the first one to blog about it.

Exactly what it does (Microsoft):

SSE could be used to share your work calendar with your spouse. If your calendar were published to an SSE feed, changes to your work calendar could be replicated to your spouse’s calendar, and vice versa. As a result, your spouse could see your work schedule and add new appointments, such as a parent-teacher meeting at the school, or a doctor’s appointment.

This extension of RSS has some great potential. Expect to see some great new web services and updates to old ones.
