Thing 3: Subscribing to RSS Feeds

I have been subscribing to RSS feeds for awhile now. Initially, I added way too many feeds to my Google Reader and had to delete some. I finally figured out that all I really wanted to see was the BBC. I have since added HuffingtonPost.com, an internet newspaper, because I was curious about what an internet only newspaper would be like. I also added feeds from the Montana State Library who would notify subscribers when a new item was added to the collection. I was curious about what it would be like to be notified by a library when they added an item - what would it look like. MSL must be short of cash because I have yet to receive a feed from them.

Blogging

So far, I've managed to create my avatar, which was fun. But the clothing choices - my heavens, she has more clothes in her closet than I will ever have!

I also managed, with help, to get a link posted on my blog to my rss feed. I'm not sure I understand exactly how the link works, but anyway, it's done.

Now, on to more experimentation.
