More on RSS Feeds #8

RSS feeds enable me quick access to the information I want. I am in control as I can look over the "headings/titles" of the feeds and decide which pieces I want to read, i.e. do they interest me?


Sometimes it can get a little overwhelming having to look over all the Feeds that I receive. It is therefore a good idea to check the Reader/Feeds more often than not (and as I have mentioned previously I don't practice what I preach).

I find the RSS feeds in some of our databases very useful, as do many of the academics. It saves so much time and provides all the current information needed to keep up-to-date on a particular subject.

RSS Feeds could be very useful for a library. Enabling users to subscribe to a library feed would provide a library another form of communication. A library could provide information such as database updates, changes to opening hours etc.
