Ok, that makes sense, although the content creators for iTunes, etc, still often have to find out what RSS is.

I'm still not sure what your point is - you said Twitter is trying to "be" RSS, but that's just the format, not the application. Twitter is not trying to aggregate content from elsewhere, either.

Maybe not directly, but they sure make it easy for third party sites to have "Share this article via Twitter" buttons.
