Syndication Idea

November 8, 2004 in Random Bytes

When I sign up to a new service, I'd like to have the RSS feed for the terms of service be added to my "Legal Agreements that I need to stay on top of" aggregated feed so that when a service provider changes something in their TOS, I get a nice little notice in my Bandit Inbox.

This will also have the added bonus of making it unnecessary for service providers to put bone-headed statements like this in their TOS:

THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS MAY CHANGE PERIODICALLY, SO PLEASE CHECK BACK OFTEN

Amen. I touched on this back in September 2003 in my blog. Have you tried using ChangeNotes? It's been recommended to me for tracking this sort of thing, but I haven't tried it out yet.
