I'd actually have to vote for “XML feed” as a compromise between RSS and Atom — that way, you don't have to remember which one the site you're on is actually feeding.

SGML > XML > RSS. XML is a document type? Or a specification? RSS is a subset of XML, but not XML? Is that like saying african americans are a subset of americans, but not americans? So many questions… so little reason to ask them.

I'll have to agree with Chris.
RSS is RSS, which so happens to be an XML script, but XML is not a feed.
If you say XML it's a broad gemeralization, but if you say RSS you know exactly what we're talking about.
I realze this is debatable and this is just my view and not meant to be taken as the be all and end all on this matter =)
In any case I really love RSS Feeds!

Let me disagree. It's an XML feed, but more specifically an RSS feed, but it's still an XML feed. I think it would be less confusing if we changed all those XML chicklets into RSS chicklets. Thoughts? I see you've already done it, maybe I'll do the same.
