Thing #10

I follow several blogs with Google Reader. I follow History, Caitlin's Way, Erica Peredez, Erica Tucker, and Teacher in Training. The Reader allows me to search the blogs for the specific information I am interested in without the need to read the entire blog to find the subject of interest. Basically, this is a nifty time-saving device that can seriously cut down on the hunt, so to speak. The one-stop shopping capability of the RSS makes this a fundamental tool for anybody's online kit or bag of tricks. Moreover, plugging into a teachers style network will pay off in the sharing of information at light speed. Imagine having an RSS feed from the school website, favorite blogs, current items from a particular research field. I have said it before and I will say it again, "Imagine the possibilities!"
