RSS feeds

I have created my blogline account and subscribed to the requiste 10 feeds. I think about four of them are other JPL 2.0 participant blogs.

What do you like about RSS and newsreaders?
Too early to say what I like about RSS. Right now I feel it creates more work than it helps with. I only frequent a couple of sites on a consistent basis. Some are news sites like: cnn, first coast news and channel 4 news. These I don't really need to know about updates as I am generally cruising the site to see if there is something I need to know or might be interested in. Another site I visit daily does have blogs, but I like so much about the site that I enjoy going directly to the site. Other sites are message boards that you have to log in to view.

How do you think you might be able to use this technology in your work or personal life?
I don't really see a use or need in my personal life at this time due to the reasons described above. It is too early in learning about RSS to see what use it may be in my personal life.

How can libraries use RSS or take advantage of this new technology?
Once again, it is too early for me to tell as I don't have much experience with RSS.
