Atom is a simple way to read and write information on the web,
allowing you to easily keep track of more sites in less time, and to
seamlessly share your words and ideas by publishing to the web.
Created by leading service providers, tool vendors and independent
developers, Atom is designed to be a universal publishing standard for
personal content and weblogs. Technical information about working with
the Atom format is available at the developer information page, and publications or weblogs that are interested in the benefits of being AtomEnabled can find out more about the benefits of Atom for publishers.

Moving from Atom 0.3 to 1.0
Thanks to Rakaz for his helpful article on
Moving from Atom 0.3 to 1.0 for those looking to implement changes to fully support the 1.0 feed format.
Atom 1.0 is Almost Final
Tim Bray has posted an
update on Atom 1.0, with some key links as the IETF works to approve the standard. First, a quick
comparison between Atom 1.0 and RSS 2.0, which is useful for implementors, and a number of
Atom feed format tests, which the community can make contributions to.
At this time, the IETF is expected to accept the
draft published at atompub.org as soon as one registered objection is resolved.
Socialtext Supports Atom

Kwiki.
