eBay Announcements via RSS
Starting today you can get eBay announcements (special offers, promotions, etc.) and system status messages via RSS. Highly recommended if you use a weblog reader and are the least bit serious about using eBay.

Both feeds are invalid [11:50AM].
Could you consider changing your feed to include a more internationalizable format, like W3C's [1]

Nice stuff, mang. Now if vendors could only use RSS 2.0's tags for rich media, you'd be seriously humming.

I would love to see RSS feeds of any search results avail soon. I am a devout Pluck user and feel it is the best way for eBay to participate in all offsite viewing of its listings by folks like myself.
There are definitive studies showing that RSS is increasing traffic to sites.
Looking for comments.
Thanks.

Pluck just announced Auction Scout -- you can generate custom RSS feeds that bring back matching eBay listings.
