Thing 5 Subscribe to blogs

RSS can be a difficult concept for some to grasp right away - what questions do you have? What didn't work or doesn't make sense? How might you use RSS in your personal or professional life? Find anything in your searching that you'd recommend to others?

So much has happened these last three weeks I had to go back and reread many of the instructions. I was so ready to do all of the "Things" and I had way too many obstacles to overcome. The cord on my laptop had a short in it, we went on vacation, sold our condo in Muskegon and had to move all the stuff home, son came home for a visit from school in Phoenix and my sister-in-law was here for a week from Texas. Wow there was no time to work on my "Things".

I think I have grasped the concept of RSS but, I don't think I have even begun to comprehend all that it can do for me. There are so many uses and hidden features it will take some time and networking to make the most of it. It is a definite time saver once you decide what blogs you want to keep up with. It will be fun playing with it. My one recommendation to others is to be sure to find a blog that will make you laugh. We all need to laugh more to releave stress and help us to feel better.

  1. I totally agree that the usefulness of RSS in the classroom ,workplace ,and even at home is hard to comprehend.I think there is a website or blog for everything imagineable . What a resource for us! We all are learning so much! I am proud of you for putting in the effort to learn more this summer. Although obstacles(ie.. vacations ,computer glitches) can bring us down,let us encourage each other to get as far as we can. Keep it up! Book Lover
