RSS Feeds are easy to set up!

RSS Advantages:

The list below are some of the reasons why I became a subscriber to RSS feeds about 6 months ago.

My news in one place: I can subscribe to multiple news groups or blogs and it is a great time saver because I have them located in one place. When I subscribe to a site I no longer have to have them bookmarked. The information comes to me!!! I have the majority of feeds listed on my Algebra 2 blog and they are sorted by the most current update. I do use Google reader to catch up on others that are not listed on my blog. What a GREAT TOOL!!

News when I want it and keep my privacy: I can go to my Google reader or my blog page when I want to read an updated feed. I no longer have to worry about receiving spam or unwanted junk email from a website. Along with the spam I have also avoided sharing any personal information or my email with this website. Here is a snapshot of a few examples from my Algebra 2 blog as they are posted at the right of this blog.

READ only the news I want: I don't have time to read all of my news or blogs so the RSS feed comes in the form of a headline so I can easily scan the headlines and read only those that catch my attention.
