Sometimes, universal symbols aren't a bad thing. So glad to see the icon back in the most recent Opera 9 build. Sometimes, universal symbols aren’t a bad thing.

I'm using Beta 2 of Opera 9, and the RSS icon is already there. They've been using in these tests for some time. So yes, they're already on board. Grab the Opera beta and check for yourself.

I use the ’standard’ feed icon in this site (see below, it’s shown twice even!) and I think it’s good to finally have something that could be universally accepted. Web standards has tried, but not everyone has jumped in with both feet, *cough* Microsoft *cough*, although this time around it’s not Microsoft we’re waiting for, and it wasn’t their idea to begin with. It started with Mozilla and then it spread to web developers/designers and then to IE, and now Mozilla is trying to coax Opera into signing up. So that’ll be everyone, right? Wrong. Hasn’t anyone thought about Safari? It looks doubtful. As far as I know Apple is still using their own blue RSS icon (even though half the feeds that are used are Atom, so it’s a misrepresentation). So why doesn’t Mozilla go for them? There are plenty of Safari users to make it a force to think about when doing things online, in fact it’s probably about the same as Opera users (don’t quote me on this, I’m not 100% sure, I’m making a guess here). [...] [...] I agree with Chris for the most part.
