Things 5 and 6

Well having had no idea what an RSS feed was- I think i have finally got the hang of it. I have set up my Google Reader account. At first, I have to say, I didnt quite see the point as there wasnt that much on the page that was of interest to me. Once I subscribed to the 23 things blog though, i all started to become clear!! So you can use the reader page to get updates on things that are off interest to you.
So, I set off on my mission to find more RSS feeds for my Google Reader. First I went to the BBC, seemed like the obvious place to start- and this was quite straight forward.. I found the RSS link, and it set up it in the same way as the '23 things'... I then tried to think of websites that I use quite regularly to try and set up some feeds in the same way- this is where I came a little stuck. i was trying to locate the term RSS feed on all of the sites- not realising that the little orange symbol was the key!!

I have now returned to the sites that I didnt think had RSS links- and found that they actually all did- and by clicking on the little orange symbol, it set up the feeds that I was interested in. I have links to BBC, CIPD ( thought I should have something remotely work related), V Festival to see when I can get my ticket (and who is in the line up), o2 Oxford, and New Theatre Oxford- both to get updates on whats coming up. Now finding the RSS feeds very useful and will definately be continuing to use this in the future...
