Thing #8

I like the RSS reader because it does just what the name says: really simple syndication. I like that I can get updates from a lot of websites in one easy place. It looked/sounded a lot more complicated than it actually is. Hopefully other people can see that if I can have one, so can they!

For starters I see RSS as having more of an impact in my personal life, as a convenient aggregator for the things I want to see, but I can definitely see librarians and teachers like myself using RSS as a tool to keep parents in the loop when it comes to certain web sites or sources of information I want to share with them. In addition, it allows librarians and administrators to provide the same service to us as teachers.
