RSS

RSS can most likely be a very useful tool. I like the idea of having my favorites available in one spot. I am a little concerned at the amount of time it takes to "stay current". Having the time during the school day to read these blogs and favorites seems like a dream.

I think I must be a little old fashion. I still read the newsPAPER at home over breakfast before I leave for school in the morning. I've gone to watching the 9:00 p.m. news because I fall asleep during the 10:00 p.m. news, and that's only if we're home from high school evening events in time. I realize as an information speacialist I need to be aware of these technologies; I'm just trying to figure out how to have time to read it all.

I most definitely like the idea of getting updates from our subscription databases when new items are included. That will be really beneficial.

I can see where this tool could help students who have several teachers utilizing classroom blogs. Being able to access them all from one reader will save those students time and energy.
