RSS Feed
Instead of visiting the site regularly, some users may want to receive Really Simple Syndication (RSS)
feeds from their self-developed web application or via their own personalized portal site (for example,
from iGoogle). The SpringBlog application will provide the blog entries via RESTful-WS. Because of this
service, consumers are able to retrieve the blog entries in XML or JSON format.

provides this service too. Users can write their blogs, save them in an XML file with predefined tags, and
upload the file to a particular location on the server. SpringBlog will poll the folder regularly and import
them when new files are found.
