What are you?

In Jonathan Swift’s Gulliver’s Travel one of the more famous stories was his visit to Lilliput. And one of the side stories was the war between Lilliput and Blefuscu. A war started because of a dispute between which side of a boiled egg should be cracked. So it was a war between Big-endians and Little-endians.

In terms of RSS feeds there are similar disputes:

1) Full versus partial feeds

2) Atom versus RSS – in all its formats and versions

3) On-line versus Desktop feed readers

And perhaps the most classic would be this:

4) Blog Reader versus the feed reader
