question 23

[hang a left]

84. yeah???

I came back to this post to try and figure that out too.

[jn2375]

98. Wondered that myself

[Trevelyan]

138. RSS is news feeds which I would like to use on my blogs but can't figure

it out. I tried to RSS news feed the WaPo's most important Congressional votes but didn't work. Someone on Yahoo 360 degree blogspots had a daily Bible verse but tried to cut and paste that on my 360 degree blog, didn't work. I always assume, if I don't know what something is don't check it. What is a Podcast? Have heard of it but really don't know what it is. Just when I think I am computer semi-literate, they hit us with a dozen new things.

[realisticphish]

155. RSS

Stands for Really Simple Syndication (Actually its an acronym for something else, but that's what it's commonly referred to as).

Basically, a blog puts all their entries, or a link to their entries, at a certain web address. You download an RSS reader (and there are LOTS; I use NetNewsWire Lite, and I used to use Newsfire). Then, you subscribe to that blog using the link on their website. From that point on, instead of going to the links for individual blogs, you can check many, many blogs at once; I have 21 subscriptions, currently. It's a great way to see which blogs have been updated, and with what, very quicly. Hope this helps.

It was hard dividing up the percentages though. I gave forums 50%, online print newspapers 30%, blogs 20%. I don't consider DU a blog. And I read almost all my news from links at DU. Then I peruse a few blogs. I spend entirely too much time online.
