RSS feeds my learning

Well, week 3 was the best yet. I am very excited to have signed up to several RSS feeds. All my favourite websites have been added to my Google homepage so I only have to go to one page to get all the latest info on all my favourite subjects. I have also completed the extra activities.
I did originally use bloglines as the exercise requested and the experience was good, but I prefer to limit the amount of pages I have to log in to so have gone back and done it all using Google.
I have also managed (I think) to add an RSS feed to my blog, one of my best loved TV shows.
I think the professional development applications for Library professionals are limitless with this fabulous technology.

Week 3.
Well, I did it! I survived week 2 and came back for more. Thank you to all those that posted comments on the SLNSW blog as, due to technical difficulties I haven't been able to use all the links yet. So comments helped things move right along. I have had a great time perusing through Flickr, I absolutely adored some of the images I found, but so many of them are restricted under licensing. I did however find this one, I love the retro style, some may say I’m living in the past, but that’s O.K. you have to live somewhere! I also know a very talented young burlesque performer who looks just like this.
