RSS feeds

I have, thus far, ignored RSS feeds. Partly because 'real simple' is 'real bad' grammar, and partly because I didn't think it was too much hassle to quickly check all the blogs or sites you like, using your links or favourites. I would have to say, though, that I am now a convert. It is annoying when you keep checking a particular blog and it hasn't been updated and I think that, particularly in a work situation, Bloglines can really save you time by just letting you know when there is something to see.
So far I have subscribed to all the suggested blogs, some personal ones and a few other library ones I found. I particularly like Mosman Library's blogs. I also added Wagga's Reference Updates blog which we use to keep all reference desk staff sharing the knowledge they gain during their shifts. Whenever we get a tricky question, one that is likely to come up often (like school assignments) or just one where we are pretty pleased with the information we found, we post about it on the blog and it can be searched when we get an inquiry to ensure we're not doing work that has already been done! It can be hard to remember to check the blog, especially when you are busy, so having an RSS reader can be helpful because you set it all up beforehand and it just alerts you when there are things you need to read.
