Finding more feeds

I've now found some really interesting feeds on some of my favourite websites and added them. Technorati was very useful and so was Syndic8, they enabled me to find The Kept Up Academic Librarian and the Technorati Technology Channel which I've now subscribed to. I'll keep an eye out for more when I'm travelling around the web.

There does seem to be so many ways to receive RSS feeds. I've noticed the icon in my Outlook, my Internet Explorer, and now I'm really starting to see it on sites that I visit. I've always sort of known they were there, but now they really stand out to me.

Which begs the question, RSS feeds are designed to reduce the information overload that we face everyday -but could they also give rise to an information addiction? How many feeds are too many? How much information can one person absorb in a day?

RSS feeds and newsreaders

I've played with RSS feeds using Internet Explorer before but hadn't heard of Bloglines. I signed up for a Bloglines account and subscribed to various feeds including cartoons, news, recipes and library issues.

It's quite interesting, I like having all the information together in one place. It's also good that you can put the feeds into different folders so they aren't all cluttered up together.
I've had some difficulty working out the url for my public account so I'll add it here when I work it out. It isn't located where it's supposed to be in the interface and the help doesn't.

Time passes...

Aha! I've cracked it! You need to actually alter it so that you click on Blog and edit the options. Add in a username and also 'Yes, publish my blogroll'. Then you can copy the url and add it thus... My Blogroll
