Thing #6

After clicking on Dr. Wilson's blog to learn how to subscribe to news feeds I did not have any luck viewing the tutorials or resources, but I did subscribe to quite a few news feeds. I tried to post my blogline account here to share it with everyone, but I am not sure if it works.

With MyRecipes.com I can read about healthy ways to prepare meals and learn how to make the healthiest low calories meals. I also discovered this website A Poem A day where I subscribed to it because it updates you on writing contests for kids to enter in and gives you great ideas on how to teach poetry. You can even look at student work. I was very impressed with the writing and I think I can really use this for class since I don't know too much about teaching poetry. I gives you great ideas! I learned a lot about RSS feeds and how I can use them more to help me learn about things that interest me.

 Here are some questions that I answered:
What do you like about RSS and newsreaders? It is a great way for you to stay updates with current news and websites that interest you. It is fast and efficient.

How do you think you might be able to use this technology in your work or personal life? I can use it to help my daily life in ways like cooking, saving money, and improving work.

How can libraries use RSS or take advantage of this new technology?
RSS feeds and email alerts can help you find out about new literature in your field to help you find articles for research, books in your field, and update you on current news. Using technology can make it easier for you to find literature that is of interest to you. I feel the most beneficial aspect is that it can allow you to research current topics and keep our libraries updated that way libraries will still be in use for years to come.
