RSS

This week we learned about RSS (Really Simple Syndication). A method of flagging or following sites/blogs. It alerts you when one that you are following has been updated. You customize your own list so you can follow the things that interest you the most.

This is an interesting and useful tool to help sort through all the information available. It could be useful in the work or educational environment if you find a blog that explores topics pertinent to the topic being taught. It can also be used in the educational environment as we are in this class by having each student create a blog and all other students in the class follow each others blogs.
