The Future of E-Mail. RSS is well-suited to replace e-mail in workgroups whose members must communicate frequently. "Some of the attorneys might want to hear about news on patents relating to wireless technology," Klyse said. "They could do a search in Google for 'wireless technology patents,' but they'd have to remember to do that."
