In my experience, when I tell people about PubSubHubbub, many of them seem to automatically assume it runs over XMPP. I then need to explain to them that it's instead based on HTTP and very simple to implement (as a publisher or subscriber). I guess it's because XMPP PubSub is what popularized the publish-subscribe model. It seems like PubSub and XMPP became synonymous and it will probably take a while to change that.
