Week 4: RSS Feeds and Newsreaders

Thing #8: Learn about RSS feeds and set up your own Bloglines newsreader account.

I have been using RSS feeds (Really Simple Syndication) in several online applications and my favorite these days is Google Reader. Google Reader allows me to pick and choose a variety of online sources, e.g., blogs, wikis, news, and reference sources to preview as soon as they are available via the Internet. I still have not discovered how to keep current with my assortment of RSS feeds and often find myself skimming large quantities at odd hours of the early morning when I cannot sleep. :) I would appreciate any feedback from my fellow peers as to their methods for keeping up with this additional information treasure trove!

Thing #9: Locate a few useful library related blogs and/or news feeds.

Here is my list of useful library related, news, and/or reference RSS feeds from my Google Reader account.
Enjoy surfing!
