RSS Feeds

I have completed the task on RSS feeds. I used the Google reader as I already had a Google account. I have subscribed to ABC news and sports feeds, The Chaser and Sydney Morning Herald feeds amongst others. Some of the library related feeds I subscribed to are The Librarians Index to the Internet, Library Stuff, ALIA and the Sutherland Libraries blog.


I don't think RSS feeds will impact me heavily in my personal life. At the moment I not a heavy user of the internet. I don't use it every day. I have a few sites I enjoy visiting regularly and I usually check them whenever I go online. I think for people who spend a lot of time on the internet and like to visit a lot of sites RSS feeds are probably an ideal way keep up to date. If I become a heavier internet user in the future I may embrace this technology further.


I think that RSS feeds could be a useful tool for libraries. Subscribing to feeds would enable staff to keep up to date with news and events in the world of libraries.

Bula!

This is my first post. I decided to go with a Fijian theme as I was there on holidays recently and loved it. The name of my blog Sega Na Leqa (pronounced senga na leng-ga) means no problem or no worries. For more Fijian words follow the link: http://www.fijibure.com/fijian.htm
Creating my blog wasn't too difficult. I think the most difficult thing was finding a name that was available.
