The Blogging Mailbox

I was wondering why the new Mail in Leopard has RSS reader while Safari has it since 2005 when I first saw it. Why duplicate the function at different places? Besides, Mail seems to be an odd place to read about the revealing of US intelligence budget to be $43.5bn in 2007, or the torrential rains that lashed east Cuba, forcing evacuations as Tropical Storm Noel heads for the Bahamas.

Shortly after I found an excellent use for it: a RSS reader for personal blogs, rather than news feeds. Shortly after that, I've conjectured that Mail is on its way of becoming iBlog. And then shortly after that, this confirmed my suspicion:

Blogsinmail
What kind of RSS feeds you put in your inbox? hmm...
