New assignment (BOO)
OK everyone. This week, sign up with an RSS feed reader service (like Google Reader) or get your own RSS feed reader software, and plug in the addresses of all nine of our student group blogs. That way you can easily follow everything that is happening in our whole course! (P.S. Plug in the address of our main blog, mediafluency.blogspot.com, as well, to follow this course web site!)

This tool makes it far more practical for me to follow some blogs. Prior to knowing this existed, I would hop around between blogs looking for content. Actually, to be entirely honest, I ignored blogs all together. And while I'm being honest, I'll probably continue to do so; however, this tool will make it slightly more likely for me to tour the blogosphere.
ReplyDeleteI agree with Andrew about this tool being really helpful! It's really nice to be able to have all the blogs in one spot, not only for easy access, but for comparison as well! Now, it is also easier to find blogs of our interests with the RSS feed reader!
