#8 RSS Feeds

It took about 24 hours to hear back from Bloglines. You might want to go ahead and submit your registration to Bloglines now, even if you are not yet on exercise 8.

I think the concept of RSS feeds is a good one, though I don't know how well it will work. I read a lot of blogs everyday, mostly political blogs like crooksandliars and huffingtonpost. It would be nice just to go to one site to see the new posts.

I don't know how libraries can use this in the public sector, but in the cataloging world, I'd like to be kept up-to-date on new developments in the field. I am going to look for some cataloging blogs and then add them to my Bloglines subscriptions. Since I also select books, I am going to look for some book review sites.

Here is the link to my public Blogline account:
