If there is one thing in this world that we need more of, it's time. One way to keep up with the information that you regularly view on the web is to subscribe to an RSS feed.
RSS simply stands for: Really Simple Syndication
This is an easy way to keep up to date, without losing a date. One suggestion from me would be to add it on to your email account. Google offers this tool with any normal email account, and lets me know when I have new material to read if I feel I am in a reading mood. This also allows you to comment with promptness. Comments are soooooo important to bloggers. That tad bit of encouragement can go a long way in the world of a blogger. If you learn that you have helped somebody in a way that informed them of a more convenient lifestyle then you have accomplished what many try to do every day of their lives in the work place. RSS is a great was to keep those comments in check, and to keep your eye on the people who have new things to say.
I know that there are many educators out there who blog daily, and sometimes multiple times a day, with information that can drastically enhance other classrooms and educators. Use this tool to better your use of the web. Learning from others is as easy as letting the information directly fall into your inbox. RSS allows that to happen. You can chose to read, or ignore any post, but at least you have the option.
I will use this. (already do use this) I find it to be a convenient way to organize my blogger contacts and to know what is the most recent and relevant information from those that I follow. I hope that others use the same for me. I'm not an everyday blogger by any means, but I do find that there are important things from time to time that I should share with others. If you are looking for some recent posts from you fellow bloggers without the long search of finding their private page, put them in your RSS file cabinet and let the web do the work for you. Give yourself some more time.
RSS = More Time
Happy Blogging, friends.
