White Paper
Company Name: Cyberworlds
Company Description: Cyberworlds specializes
in outsourced IT services for small-to-medium
businesses and organizations. They also provide
individual services on a one-time basis, ongoing
support and consultation, or even act as a virtual
IT department. Cyberworlds also publishes software

Using RSS: One of the services Cyberworlds
provides their clients (or anyone interested)
is the Cyberworlds Security Advisory. When Cyberworlds
become aware of a security-related issue which
might impact their clients, they publish an advisory
on their website and send out an e-mail notification.
Because of the diminishing reliability of timely
email delivery due to spam filtering, they also
provide alternative channels of notification,
such as an IE toolbar and now an RSS feed.
Quotes: "Currently only a small
percentage of our subscribers take advantage of
the RSS feed, although I expect that number to
grow as RSS becomes more mainstream. Those that
are using it are very enthusiastic about it, and
since it makes our clients happy, it makes me
happy! I anticipate creating feeds in the future
for the Swidgets software line and for another
business I'm involved with. "
"The timing of FeedForAll's release couldn't
have been better for me - I had been using FeedDemon
for a short while and was considering adding an
RSS feed for the Cyberworlds Security Advisory.
FeedForAll made adding the RSS feed trivial; I
had created the feed and posted the first link
within minutes of installing the program. Although
I've barely scratched the surface of the capabilities
offered by either RSS or FeedForAll, I've been
able to provide a useful service that our clients
appreciate - and for me, that's the bottom line."
