Thing 3 - RSS feeds

I now have a Google Reader account set up and have added some blogs and websites to it. I had previously wondered if there was a way to know when someone had updated their blog without checking it every day as I was doing. Now I know! And I will save myself some time!

I chose the Google Reader and the Google Blog Search tool because I already set up a Google account to make my blog. I don't like always having to set up a new account all the time to try different things. I think it is hard to go back and eradicate things from the internet. You read about people who didn't get a job offer etc. because of something that was on their Facebook or My Space a long time ago. They even thought they had deleted it...well, it was no longer on their page but the footprint is still out there in cyberspace somewhere. I don't know, maybe I am more leery than I need to be..... Even so, it's just a pain to keep setting up accounts and passwords for everything.

Time to sign off...I am spending way more than 15 minutes a day with this stuff as was mentioned in the video as part of Thing 2. On the upside, I did get in 30 minutes on the exercise bike today too!

Congratulations on joining Round 2 of 23 Things on a Stick! Good luck, learn lots, and have some fun! Glad you found RSS feeds to help you keep up - now to keep up with the "keeping up," right?!
