Options A and C reference non-existent objects, while option B tries to access a 'browser' property that doesn't exist on the navigator object. Note that appName may return 'Netscape' for many browsers due to historical compatibility reasons.

  3. infrequently

  4. None of these

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

RSS is most useful for websites that are updated very frequently, such as news sites, blogs, and content portals. The value proposition of RSS is to notify subscribers immediately when new content is published. For sites that update infrequently or never, RSS provides little benefit since subscribers would rarely receive updates. Frequent updates maximize the utility of automated syndication and notification.

Web services are a new breed of web application that allows different systems to communicate with each other over the internet.
