===================
I already had a Bloglines account.
Hadn't used it that much but managed to add this blog to the feed.
Then added the Yarra Plenty Online Learning feed. And others as per the exercise.
This then is my Bloglines feeds list.
So to the questions:
(1) What do you like about RSS and newsreaders? One word - Convenience.
(2) How do you think you might be able to use this technology in your work or personal life? Only as an end user at this stage. Will have to give more thought to how we can use this as a developer of content.
(3) How can libraries use RSS or take advantage of this new technology? The obvious answers are pushing out information on new loan items, events, and possibly to notify of items that are on hold for a patron.
The problem with having better search engines for blogs etc., is that you have to have the time to read all of them. I've added the Astronomy Picture of the Day site to my bloglines account, as well as a couple of other sites.
