Using RSS Feeds?

    I see alot of affiliate programs offer RSS feeds. I know what an RSS feed is, but I don't see how they would help me market products better. Do people actually incorporate these into their sites (i.e. display product pages based on the feeds)?

    Most that offer feeds right now offer you feeds about product info, coupons and updates - so more as a way to keep in touch with you.

    A few offer datafeeds as RSS to incorporate into your site but not many yet.

    I am working with a a couple companies who are building tools to convert regular datafeeds into RSS which will be really hot.

    Here is one of the blogs I wrote on the topic which may provide some helpful info. http://affiliate-blogs.5staraffiliateprograms.com/2005/08/07/rss-datafeeds-msn-shopping/
