I found Bloglines to be interesting, but very difficult to use. I spent about an hour and a half trying to figure out the website before understanding how to add newsfeeds. I also had never heard of Bloglines until I started this blog. There are a couple of benefits to the RSS, such as having the ability to pick specific newfeeds I am interested in and have them in one specific place. I find it resourceful and a time saver that the articles on my newsfeed are constantly updated so I do not have to waste time tracking down new articles each day.
I signed up for a feed that updates me on news because I am always on news websites reading about current events. I also signed up for Amazon's newsfeed because I have an obsession with this website! Lastly, I mostly signed up for education newsfeeds. I like that at the touch of a button I can read several articles about the latest news in the world of education. One website was a Podcast for teachers, another one was about how to add technology into the classroom, and another website was a radio network with current news about education. I really like RSS, but I need to explore it more indepth to completely understand it, but I am happy with the small library I created tonight with newsfeeds. I think I will only use this for my personal use and not with students.
My Newsfeed!
