Week 4 exercise #8 RSS and Newsfeeds

I had always noticed that little orange squiggly box at a bunch of the websites that I visit, but never knew what it was for, or quite frankly cared what it was for.  With this exercise, I discovered what an incredible time saving tool RSS/Newsfeeds are.  In many ways they serve as a Cliff’s Notes for websites..quickly and in a visually accessible way, showing you the important stories going on for the day.  This would be helpful in everyday life because, like I mentioned earlier, it serves as a way to save time.  Instead of visitting the multiple websites one frequents, all they have to do is go to their blogline and get all that information in 1 spot

    Yip that’s it! I couldn’t deal half as well with the info overload if I didn’t have RSS.
