RSS feeds

Well I am glad to hear that I am not the only one who is not personally very excited about RSS feeds. I did this exercise a few weeks ago, but procrastinated over writing the blog. I, like a lot of people here apparently, am pleased to learn about RSS feeds, so that we can inform our customers (especially when people are fighting over the library newspapers!). I also think that it is important for library staff to keep abreast of what is out there on the net, which is the whole point, isn't it?

I will not be getting into RSS feeds myself, however. I guess I am still pretty attached to curling up with the paper, and that's enough news for me. However, I have already made a convert. I actually showed my husband the computer geek, something he didn't know about computers! He, unlike myself, does look at a lot of news online, and has subscribed to several feeds, as well as some comic strip feeds (sigh).
