Alright, its been a long time between posts. I have the excellent excuse that I have been on leave and gallavanting around Vietnam.
Enough of the boasting. RSS feeds.
I started using bloglines after a State Lib. rep came out to our library to teach NSW.net databases. Excellent! Now I thought now I can monitor everything from one site!
Whilst searching for a house last year I was able to use an RSS feed to monitor properties of interest. I can check my favourite SMH blogs and see what others are ranting about.
In libraryland I can check out what is happening in alt teen services or find out whats the buzz is about different technologies. This was great while I was still studying, but i find recently that I don't log in as much.
As yet I haven't integrated bloglines into my daily routine. My laptop crashed a few months ago and as a result I've weened myself off spending quite so much time on the net. The great thing about bloglines however, is that I don't need to check it regularly, by checking once every few weeks I can find out if there are any recent posts without having to trawl the Internet for hours.
