RSS

I have used RSS very briefly in the past. A few years ago, not many sites were using it and there certainly wasn't anything like bloglines, where you could subscribe to non RSS blogs, photos and more. So, I never really saw a use for it.

This past year, however, I have been trying to keep updated on current events as well as some blogs and it is a bit of a pain to check everything only to see nothing earth shattering has occured. So it's great to see how Bloglines works! I heard about it while watching the "20 Technologies in 50 minutes" presentation on Dynix's site. I'm so glad I finally signed up and got some stuff subscribed. Right now all I have is news sites like CNN and Time, but I have a big list of library and book related blogs at home so I'm going to enter those as soon as I can. If anyone has any suggestions I would love to hear them.

I might even make Bloglines my default homepage, it seems so useful to keep updated, I'm glad I gave it another try!
