23 Things Assignment #3 - RSS feeds

I have used Bloglines before. However, for this assignment I've added a new feed, Canadian Business Online. So far I subscribe to feeds from:
Library Journal News
The Shifted Librarian
Librarians Internet Index
Canadian Business Online: My Money News

My experience with RSS have been okay. I noticed that I really prefer to check out the websites where the feeds are generated from. That way I get a chance to see other articles that might be of interest to me, for example, Canadian Business Online. RSS works well for me if I subscribe to news from websites that I have a moderate interest in. That way I can still keep informed but really have no need to check out their websites. This is a time saver if I approach using Bloglines in this way. I think that Bloglines can be used for both work or leisure. I am still hoping to add a few more feeds to my bloglines account.
