RSS feeds July 31, 2009

RSS is a “feed” or a “channel” where you can get updated news or information from a certain site.  You can either save RSS feeds to a website or to a desktop.  A couple of websites mentioned in the blog include Bloglines and Google Reader.  I used Explorer to save a few RSS feeds.  It is somewhat like a bookmarking tool because it saves that site for you.  The RSS feed is different in the fact that it gives you updated and new information.  Now that I know what the RSS feed button looks like, I am more aware of it on my computer.  It is very exciting to know what this button/tool is used for!

I will definitely use this tool while creating podcasts.  I do not think I will use RSS feeds much more than that in the classroom.
