Week three is here and lucky for me, I have already completed this weeks’ activity without doing a thing! (though I did subscribe to some more sites that I really don’t have time to read!) I have had a bloglines account since the fall and I really like it. It is so convenient to have all your favourite sites right in one account. No more endless searching! YEAH!!! I also like the ‘related feeds’ feature in bloglines, so I can look for other sites in my areas of interest. You have got to love technology!(sometimes). The one problem I have found with RSS feeds is the disappearance of time. Before you know it one or two hours has passed when you only wanted to check out one thing!!!
Out of my many subscriptions Dictionary.com and the quotes of the day are two of my favourite RSS feeds. I find that they make excellent trivia questions! I also like Scientific American and Canadian Geographic. So many interesting articles to read and information to learn about. Of course I have the McMaster feeds for the university, library and ETG.
So much to read and so little time to read it in, while attempting to get work done! By the way, the definition of ambit? I’m not going to tell you. Check it out for yourself at Dictionary.com.
