RSS

Google reader offer tremendous amount of options. Personally, I like two features the most:

1. The fact that I went to each one of my fellow classmates’ blogs and followed his/her blog makes all of their posts show up in my RSS. I do not need to visit every blog; I can just click on a person’s name in the left side menu under subscriptions and see all of their posts.

2. RSS is connected to my Gmail. Based on the nature of the emails I receive, I have list of recommended items in the left menu in RSS. Although I don’t see myself checking all of them, I tried couple of the recommended site or blogs and they were really of interest.

Overall, my experience was great. I see an educational purpose in RSS if utilized properly.
