Subscribing to RSS feeds-
For this exercise I first tried to use Feedster and Topix but one site was down and the other difficult to use so I wound up at syndic8.com, I entered the word "library" and quick as that came like 600 library related feeds. After finding the one I was interested in I did have to go back and re-listen to the podcast on how to add a feed to your bloglines. But all in all it was pretty painless, however, it's not my favorite.
My favorite was simply using the Bloglines Search Tool. I love it because you just type in your interest, hundreds of feeds pop up, you click on one, scroll down push subscribe and your done, no flipping from bloglines to another sight to copy and paste and what not, it's right there! Awesome!
However, to broaden my horizons a bit I decided to take a look at Bloglines 200 most popular feeds and that is where I found most of my feeds, there is so much cool stuff out there that I maybe do want to know about but never knew it existed, this was the perfect way to let Bloglines give me some suggestions.
