Um.. except that RSS is still not a "push" mechanism. My rss reader still sends a "GET" to the server every hour or so.

Now SQL notifications services integrated with the UPS web service...THAT would be cool. (note that sql notifications can provide notification based on various data sources and conditions to various outputs such as email, IM, MSN alerts, etc.)

...sounds like a new project to me :)
