I had fun doing this exercise. I knew about RSS feeds and had one added and downloaded a reader once. However, this time I learned all the tricks of the trade and added numerous links to my Blogline account. I already have Google Homepage all my favorite links. So, I click each one to see what is new. I am excited to see how I will use the Blogline fees instead. Now I need to go back and add my favorite sites with RSS feeds to Blogline account. I guess this is way of saving time without having to click each site separately. Libraries are now savvy with using all types of new technologies. It is always good see what other libraries are doing using technology to reach their patrons. This could be the latest method to do library outreach! I have been asked by one of my faculty members to set up certain journal alerts for him. I am going to see whether I can set up RSS feeds instead!
