RSS feeds
I had forgotten how easy to use RSS feeds were. I used to use Pluck and never got around to finding a new service when it discontinued/died. They’ve become even easier to use. The only “problem” is subscribing to more blogs than time allows.
From this week’s readings what I found most of interest is using the RSS to alert people of new items in the collection. We have links on our homepage, but students don’t seem to find it. This would also be a service that I think faculty will appreciate and I plan to bring this up to my co-workers.
