Today is RSS Day. RSS will change your life if you are interested in keeping up with current news in any field. In short, RSS lets you read updates from many websites in one place, rather than going to each site individually to check for new articles.In practice, RSS lets me easily monitor over 200 sites on a daily basis in a relatively small amount of time. I'm able to browse through news about web design, education technology, and other school districts, and read the articles that are actually good and useful.
Again, if you try to stay current or already monitor any website, adding RSS to your tools is the number one, best thing you could possibly do. I can't say enough good things about it.
