Well, about four years ago PubSub.com built a service that used XMPP +
XEP0060 PubSub to provide real-time tracking of content in Blogs, Press
Releases, SEC Edgar Filings, Earthquake reports, Airport Status, etc. The
service is now defunct -- but not for technical reasons. Bad management
killed the company.

XMPP worked very well in this application.
