Contrary to prediction, however, the "Push" technology from beginning to end without finding the right business model, and accompanied by the emergence of other types of network characteristics , Are increasingly unable to show its advantages. News channel in the browser's status eventually sunset sun, the last follow-up version of IE also disappeared. News Channel really into the trough, but RSS has not been abandoned by the industry.
