Pheedo blog reports that Steve Rubel talks about his love for widgets, Web 3.0 and the Widgetized Web. He calls widgets "glorified RSS feeds."
They also conversed with Scott Rafer, former CEO of Feedster, he said RSS is a "developer's tool." Widgets are perfect example of developers using RSS feeds to solve a problem, entertain, waste time etc. In this case, Scott is spot on.
