I think that although RSS isn't being advertised publicly on most of the sites anymore, it's still usable. I'm using Feedly and whenever I come across a blog or a website I like and want to follow, I just paste the URL there and it automatically finds the RSS for me.
That's a good idea! An accelerator for side-jobs or single-founder companies that aren't looking for more than a monthly salary and want to be their own bosses. They'll be getting an investment of a minimum yearly salary to just get by for 20% of their company. Nice.
