Here is great video created by Lee Lefever of Common Craft. It's a non-technical explanation of the benefits of RSS/ATOM in an easy to understand and entertaining manner. If you want to convert any of the non-technorati people in your life to the joys of RSS readers, this is a great video to point them to.
We made this video for our friends (and yours) that haven't yet felt the power of our friend the RSS reader. We want to convert people and if you know someone who would love RSS and hasn't yet tried it, point them here for about 3.5 minutes. If you'd like to share this video, please do! Grab the code here.
Also, if you enjoy this video you might want to subscribe to Common Craft's new show where they plan to post more videos on technology in this style:
The Common Craft show is a new series of videos done in a format we call "paperwork". Our goal is to make technology easier to understand for the less geeky people of the world.
Update: Fixed video so it will now play embedded in the webpage.
