The gurus are lagging?

Out of curiosity I wanted to see if Jakob Nielsen, Don Norman, and Bruce Tognazzini offer RSS feeds on their websites. After all, they are some kind of founding fathers of the web-user-experience movement. I was thinking, 'of course they'll offer feeds, they must have been one of the first few to realize how easy RSS makes catching news.' Well, none of them offer RSS feeds. At least, I couldn't find the feeds (which, if true, is worse). I don't think they even blog. Jakob, Don, and Tog why don't you join the revolution? We have left you behind dudes. Jokes aside, I wonder why these guys don't blog. And don't have Adsense on thier sites :-)

But you can use the RSS feed on the Usability Views site to keep upto date with Jakob, Don and Tog.

Jakob Nielsen, Don Norman, and Bruce Tognazzini have all stopped innovating and just churning the age old principles again and again. It would be better if they are a little open minded about the newly evolving world and set guidelines using the underlying age old principles. Input devices, content presentation and medium have all changed people learn and evolve. What was complex then becomes easy for the upcoming generation.
