Thing 8 RSS Feeds

I'm not so sure about this RSS thing. I understand that it gathers sites that I am interested in into one spot but it is one more thing to feel bad about not checking every day. If I was a diligent blogger and checked other sites besides my email each day RSS and Blogline would probably be useful. I feel bad about not checking it every day but I know that if I do I will just get sidetracked from my work, clicking on updates and news.....

For libraries I think it would be useful, especially for users who are diligent about checking subscribed websites. It's a great way to get out info about upcoming events. I added the RSS for OPL onto my account. Even working there I miss some upcoming events. Maybe this will help me to keep up.
