Bloglines adds new privacy feature for feeds
Techcrunch covers a new feature in Bloglines which would allow you to keep your feed private from search engines, a sort-of robots.txt for feeds.
Ask and Bloglines already support this tag, access:restriction tag, which would be added to your feed. The proposed standard, Feed Access Control RSS and Atom, is covered here. While this can be useful for some who would like to keep certain private, the tag doesn’t have universal support yet and would require manual editing of your current RSS/Atom feed.
Duncan Riley meanwhile wonders why the industry wasn’t consulted before the announcement.
