It’s official – Google has replaced all other standards bodies for XML-based publishing. In a surprise move (not atypical for google), they have released their own answer to ATOM and RSS – and it’s called GData.

At first glance it’s not entirely obvious why this should be better than ATOM – it looks a lot like ATOM meets SOAP and XQUERY, the by-now ubiquitious soup functioning as the backend of today’s AJAX applications.
