Week 3: Thoughts on RSS Feeds

Ah, the days of going to my favorite sites and seeing if new articles, updates, "news", or important information was posted are over. Well they are not over, they are just shorter! Before I use to open my browser type in the website or click on my bookmarks and read the site over most of the time to find out no updates had been made since my last visit. With Google Reader I can now log into one site and see which of my favorite sites have been updates. I can even read the updated without actually visiting the site!



I also can like that fact that I can group together the different sites. For example I have my class grouped in one folder and Hockey updates in another. Since this is new to me, I am still updating and creating my Google Reader.

    @Mike.. I really like the way you incorporated the pictures into your blog here. Very nice visual. I do enjoy the RSS feed updates a lot and it is great to group them by different categories.

    Mike,

    I found the same sense of satisfaction once I got most of my websites loaded into igoogle. It makes checking sites a million times quicker.

    Mike, I like the idea of grouping into different folders and I think I will do the same. I wear a lot of hats and separate folders really helps me out.
