RSS

I have enjoyed learning about RSS this week. I think that this technology is useful. Having most of the sites I visit in one location has been helpful. I also enjoyed looking for new sites that I found interesting. One being "I'm an organizing junkie" has had a lot of information that makes my daily life less hectic. One article she published this week was about making decisions:

I have enjoyed looking at her past publications. Each week of the year she opens up a discussion on organizing so others can share their ideas as well.
Another blog I have liked to keep track of is epicurious. This blog has all different types of recipes you can try from different companies and magazines like Bon Appetit. One that looked really good to me was a muffin recipe. At this link:

Over all I thought RSS was a good use on my time and hope I plan on to keep using it.

In class I enjoyed learning the process of creating a blog. I have never created a blog before. I had no idea that it was so simple. I like there are different backgrounds and settings to choose from. It helps to make my blog unique. It is hard to believe how many people are on the Internet creating new blogs and blogging daily. I think it will be enjoyable to go read a comment on some of the topics I am interested in.

first day of class

Today we are learning how to set up our new blog in class. The process of setting up my blog was relatively easy.
