Week 6 - RSS

I’m not sure I see the advantage of RSS yet. I have registered for Google Reader, and created RSS feeds from the Powerhouse Museum’s Picture of the Day, Librarybytes, ABS for Librarians, Undercover (the SMH book blog), and ABC news.

At the moment I probably won’t be using it at work, because I can’t seem to get Google Reader working on my work PC. I had to set it up and create the RSS feeds from my home PC. But that might just be something I need to talk to the Help Desk about.

There doesn’t seem to be a huge advantage to RSS compared to a good list of bookmarked sites. Perhaps I’m missing something.

I’ll give it more time…perhaps it will grow on me!
