Mobile RSS: Match made in Heaven or twisted spawn of Satan?
Just a thought, but why in the world do cell phone companies not include simple RSS tracking as a native service to their devices? How cool would it be to have your cell phone follow a bidding war on eBay through RSS only to have it notify you of any new bids much like an SMS message arriving. Maybe have it track your favorite sports scores (not that I’d be interesting in that one) or even follow an RSS feed of your calendar of choice. Make a Yahoo Pipe of whatever and follow that! Why is this not a given? It would be the most useful feature on my cell phone if it were present. Does this already exist and I’m just missing something? I’m talking about basic cell phones not PDA cell phones.

Oh, yea, just what we need. As if it’s not bad enough that we have to deal with folks just talking on their cells while driving, I can just imagine what’d happen if we have to deal with idiots now playing with eBay all the time while driving.
I can’t wait until we can go back to just having a plain phone.
Yes, that’s my rant for the day
