#5 RSS

Well, half in half....I had already subscribed to some Google Reader things in our last foray into 2.0 territory.  But I decided to have another look and refresh my memory...and I guess that partly answers some of the questions raised here:  Theoretically I think this is a useful tool, and well designed (it seems to have added some extra features since I last visited)...But, did I utilise it? No (I'm afraid); I think we have so many things to keep abreast of that it fell off my radar.  Maybe I should establish it as a particular routine to make sure I look at it, say once a week (or whatever)?

This is of course assuming that I actually subscribe to things which are worthwhile.  On my revisit I did add a couple of extras, including the ABC 774 twitter feed (just to see what it looked like).

I think the answer is also to make judicious selections also.  In terms of my work it might be useful to have a feed to keep up to date with selection subject areas.  I need to think about this.
