Web Feeds and Readers
Just hours after I posted my first entry on this weblog, I received an email from someone asking me to check out their social bookmarking service BlinkList. I was amazed that he was able to find my post so fast. I then remembered there is an RSS button on my blog which edublogs automatically added. So I understand that my blog automatically has a web feed (RSS feed) on it and anyone with a web feed reader (aggregator) can receive updates to my blog automatically through their reader. I have never used a reader before and started doing some research on it.
I did a search for RSS Reader on Google and came up with 105,000,000 hits! So where to start? I started with Bloglines and added a couple of Blogs that I read regularly. I would be interested to hear other recommendations.
