RSS Feeds

RSS Feeds demystified at last! I just didn't find the time before to find out, so this program has been useful in focusing my attention. I can see how they might be applied to public libraries - to get information out there to the end- user. In particular for things like regular newsletter content...

The sites I selected for RSS feeds include PC Magazine - new product reviews (because I usually browse these in hardcopy); ABC News - Just in (for breaking news); LibraryBytes; PowerHouse Museuem - photo of the day; and Bloglines -News.

What I like personally about RSS and newsreaders is that they can save me time in keeping up-to-date with areas of interest.
