Ajith I agree with you here, it will be used as a second mechanism and this is good since google will find new way to index your content. Specially RSS feed directories might become very popular after this.

I am not sure if it will make any difference at all to us. The Google bots doesn’t need to take the feed root to crawl your blog, right? Mostly with the content change, the ping servers woudl have been already alerted. Feed is only a secondary mechanism.

Or didn’t I get you right?

It will help those without a proper sitemap.

But that means that we cant have short excerpts of the posts in feeds, we need to have the full post. This might prevent feed subscribers from visiting your site
