As we know, when RSS or feeds become a must or a standard in the web world today, no one knows what is the standard icon for the feed icon. Really Simple Syndication now can be considered as a standard and one of important components in Web 2.0. When Mozilla Firefox was released, the foundation used this 
icon as the feed icon in the famous browser. As the blogging world develops rapidly, the icon acts like a standard icon for feed. Even Microsoft uses the icon as the standard icon for RSS in the new Windows Vista. Feedburner also use this icon as the standard icon for the feeding purpose.
Do you know that until the moment i write this post the icon still not a standard icon for feed even it is widely used? Do you want to make the icon to be a standard icon for feed? If you ask me, my answer is YES. I love this icon. I think the creator is Mozilla. That’s the first reason why i want this icon to be a standard. It is created by my favourite browser foundation, Mozilla. Besides, doesn’t it cute and nice? So how and where can you show your support? Easy. Use this icon in all your blogs to show that you support. To make it even better, go to FeedsIcon and customize your feed icon there. So what can you find at FeedsIcon website? Read on..
FeedsIcon is a project by Matt Brett from 9Rules Network (Matt, your blog is damn beautiful!), Matt has taken an effort to make the icon as the standard icon for feed. Basically there are 3 concepts from Matt to help him to make the icon as a standard icon.
1.Harmonize
By adopting this icon as the identity of syndicated content, you’re helping to…
* Eliminate confusion brought on by acronyms.
* Break down the international barriers.
* Bring feeds to the forefron
2. Customize
Not a fan of orange? Download the package and customize the icon to your liking. We believe that as a symbol, the feed icon is recognizable enough that it doesn’t need to be restricted to one colour.
3. Popularize
We need your help to spread the word. Bookmark this site, talk about it on your site/blog, toss the link to your friends on IM.
Besides, Matt also provides us the icon source in AI, EPS, SVG, PSD, PDF, PNG, JPG, GIF format so we can customize it as we like. That’s how you can make the icon as the standard icon. So, come lets together support Matt’s effort. Read Matt’s post about this project at his blog here.
