This week's topic in our Learning 2.0 project has been RSS. As we've learned, RSS is a geeky way to help us keep up with the web - not only with blogs, but most any site with frequent updates.
I've been using this technology for years, but haven't used Bloglines before. I did sign up for an account, but soon afterwards checked out Google Reader during our Social Software workshop last week. I'm not in love with either of them, but I've been using Google Reader this week and I don't hate it. It remains to be seen whether I'll continue using it or not. I wish that it didn't open a new browser window and go out to the web page when I click on a link. Bloglines handles this better, I think. And I still have "All Google, All the Time" issues.
At another workshop I attended last week we were shown the RSS in Plain English video, below. I think this does a great job of introducing the whole concept, and in under 4 minutes!
