RSS (Really Simple Syndication) was the topic of the week. I never did know what that RSS was on websites that I was viewing, however, now I do. Setting specific RSS for my specific needs has made my life, work and personal, much easier. I find is amazing that we can now set RSS' on my computer to access information on a daily basis. This allows me to keep up with news, updates, interests daily without having to seek constantly through the web.
RSS will allow educators to set up current events with classes daily. Individuals will not have to set up apps on their technology tools, all they have to do is set the their RSS and then select from those lists specific to users interests. I am curious how many of our teachers use this tool.

I really enjoyed learning about RSS too, Mary. I was also really clueless about what RSS was, until this week. Now I'm wondering where it's been all my life! Talk about a time saver! I don't know how many other teachers are using it, but I can tell you that I plan to use it to have my third graders follow the Iditarod this year. I've always wanted to do that with them, and now the daily updates will come to us, instead of having to search for them.
