Is RSS becoming easier to understand? Do you recognize new benefits of using this tool? Do you remember to check your feeds regularly? Has it become a habit (or obsession!) yet?
When I first started using RSS feeds it was for a different technology class and I didn’t see the benefits. I felt that it was too time consuming to check it often enough to make it worthwhile. I thought that I would do the research when and if I needed the information. That was until I found some great feeds, a few of which I shared in Thing 5. Then, I almost became obsessed with checking them regularly. Now, I have found a happy medium. I check in and scan regularly enough (usually weekly) to not miss out on any of the good stuff that might come my way and when I have spare time I look more thoroughly through the feeds.
I didn’t know you could subscribe to tabs from Delicious. I really like this feature! I have added a couple for the content I teach and plan to check them regularly. Now, when I find a site from one of those feeds that I want to use for a future lesson, I will simply add it to my Delicious account. I am so glad I took this class it will really help me locate and organize my resources!
