Today I worked on an assignment for Blue 2.0, exploring RSS feeds. This was a helpful assignment. Although I know what RSS feeds are, and I’ve subscribed in the past, it was helpful to have an assignment that helped me walk through many different possibilities for feeds (the link from the Blue 2.0 blog), and to do those as I went along.
I’m a news junkie, so my favorite feeds come from news sites, such as CNN. I also subscribe to the blog I started for my former employer, CET, but what I’d really like to do is subscribe to feeds of new videos. That’s not available yet though on their site. I also subscribe to a really cool blog called WW1: Experiences of an English Soldier, which posts original letters from a soldier exactly 90 years after they were written. Readers do not know what will happen … you simply follow along as his family and friends would have during that time period. I hope we don’t get a telegram anytime soon. Oh, and of course, icanhascheezburger.com, because what would life be without stupid pet pix?
