WebSub (formerly PubSubHubbub) is an open protocol for distributed publish–subscribe communication on the Internet. Initially designed to extend the Atom (and RSS) protocols for data feeds, the protocol can be applied to any data type (e.g. HTML, text, pictures, audio, video) as long as it is accessible via HTTP. Its main purpose is to provide real-time notifications of changes, which improves upon the typical situation where a client periodically polls the feed server at some arbitrary interval. In this way, WebSub provides pushed HTTP notifications without requiring clients to spend resource

PubSubHubbub è un protocollo open source per la notifica di contenuti publish/subscribe via Internet. Fornisce un sistema di notifica real-time per la pubblicazione o modifica di contenuti, senza le quali un client (ad esempio un feed reader) è costretto a fare il polling del server a intervalli periodici per verificare la presenza di nuovi contenuti. Progettato inizialmente come estensione dei protocolli Atom e RSS, oltre che per i feed può essere usato per qualsiasi contenuto accessibile via HTTP.
