Management of information is gaining rising importance in knowledge intensive
projects. Many information sources in the web provide feeds for easy accessibility.
While there are a variety of software tools for personal feed consumption,
collaborative approaches are still rare.
This research project focuses on the theoretical aspect of feeds and their technical
background like Atom and RSS. Furthermore it gives an overview about the historical
development and intention of feeds and how it is used today.
It also provides an overview about related research projects and existing tools. The
paper concludes with an ideal social feed reader using common principles of social
software, like tagging, social networking, social recommendation and microblogging.
