#9 Finding Feeds
http://ccls23things.wordpress.com/2008/11/05/9-finding-feeds/

Though bloglines has a search tool, I still enjoy going to the site itself and clicking the RSS icon and adding it manually to my newsreader account. Maybe I'm just stubborn.

Searching the feeds on bloglines can be more useful though, because you can find other similar feeds you may be interested in subscribing to. It is also quicker to add them all at once that way instead of one at a time.

I wanted to add a feed for one of the sites I liked, which had a newsreader icon, but when I tried to subsribe, blog lines said it didn't have a feed. I was really dissapointed.

#8 Newsreaders and RSS Feeds
http://ccls23things.wordpress.com/2008/11/02/8-make-life-really-simple-with-rss-and-a-newsreader/


I have fallen in love with bloglines! I always hated checking things individually. How can I not love a site that'll collect all my fav blogs into one site? I'm very excited. And it helps me feel more organized when things can be categorized together.

For now I only added some fun ones, like Lol Cats, order of the stick, other online strips and unshelved. I'll be adding some more library ones soon.

I had never really bothered with RSS feeds much. A few times I'd added some to my liveJournal, but, never kept track of it. I lost interest after a while.
