RSS origingated in news syndication, but is applied to a much wider range of problems on the web. Ray Ozzie (from MSFT) has said "[RSS] is filling a role as ‘the UNIX pipe of the internet’ as people use it to connect data and systems in unanticipated ways."

Utilising this emerging lightweight system of interconnection for mapping and location is the big opportunity of GeoRSS.
For instance, the GDACS group produces many RSS feeds, most of which are only intended for automated interagency coordination.

Does this make sense? I thought geoRSS was for news feeds? Is this news?

Perhaps not quite on topic, but there is a new portal in Canada about to go live - A water
portal that provides live access to instream flow and water quality sensors. They are going to generate georss structured feeds for subscibers wanting to monitor one or more sensors. Not sure if they have a client, but I can check.
Cheers

Standards Used: (to link to water related info in any given geographical area)
•
OGC
– WMS, WFS - for mapping of monitoring locations
– WMC documents – Load/save application state, predefined maps
– SensorML – description of monitoring locations, variables measured
• FGDC - for description of information collections, tools e.g. Water Use Calculator
- used previously for station-level
metadata prior to adoption of SensorML
• GeoRSS - for geo-relevant news feeds (locally, by watershed etc.)

The problem is simply that GeoRSS is brand
