Week 4, Thing 8: RSS Feeds

I had often heard the term RSS but I never knew what it meant. So after an extensive reading and listening to the tutorials, (found the tutorials helpful for this discovery exercise) I feel I have a better understanding of this technology. Now, when I use the internet to catch up on my news, I generally search website to website. I have only 4-5 websites that I regularly search, so at first I couldn't really see making a large list of bloglines. But I find the more I look at my blogline account, the more I'm starting to like it. And by listing several professional feeds (Yalsa, shifted librarian, popgoesthelibrary) I think it will be easier to keep up on the library trends.
