LinkedIn sent out a message today that it is removing RSS feeds as an option to view network updates because “we strive to provide a simple and efficient experience for members”. Well, I use RSS feeds because they are simple and efficient. LinkedIn should have just said: “We’re removing RSS feeds because you are one of only very few people left in this world who actually use this feature, and we have no time or money to waste on supporting your backwards ways”. That would have been more honest messaging.
