#8 Simple thoughts on RSS


I had experience with RSS feeds prior to this exercise so probably the most challenging part of this "thing" was to pick which 10 feeds to subscribe to on my Bloglines account. You can check out my picks here.


I like the idea of RSS feeds but unfortunately I have yet to really incorporate their use into my everyday personal or professional life. I use Firefox at home, which has a built in feed reader, making it even easier to subscribe to and follow your favorite RSS feeds. I have several of these "Live Bookmarks" on my PC at home, but I find I rarely check them. I have a feeling I'll log in and check my Bloglines account even less.


Despite my current lack of use of RSS feeds, I do see that they are a useful way to save time and keep updated on what going on in your favorite websites, news sources, and blogs.
