# Google Seeks Out Syndication Feeds

22 April 2004 · Ray Slakinski

Google's search bots are now on the lookout for RDF(RSS 1.0) and ATOM feeds, but not RSS 2.0 Feeds. RSS 2.0 is by far the more popular of formats, so why is it not searched for? Dave WIner [thinks](http://blogs.law.harvard.edu/crimson1/newsItems/trackback/ping$1479) that this is a low move by Google and I tend to agree.
