I have been neglecting my things and had stopped in the middle of this one. Oh, what joy to have to go back and review what I had already learned. My first question is how do I get my Bloglines link to look like it does on Jackie's video? In my tool bar, I have Links and I have to click that and then find the Bloglines on my list. I am not even sure what the other "links" are in this menu. (The joys of breaking in a new computer.) Anyway, I guess as long as I have figured out how to do the RSS feeds, it doesn't matter that they are exactly the way we were instructed to do them, right?
My other question was where was RSS when I was doing my job search? I remember having to visit every district's website everyday looking for new postings. RSS works for other things than Blogs, right? I am not a big fan of reading random blogs. I do think I will like that I have linked the news to my bloglines account and School Library Journal (thanks for that suggestion, Mary).
So how am I planning on using RSS in my personal or professional life? I will probably be more aware of the RSS indicator now. Like I said, I don't like to just randomly search for something that interests me, so instead of spending a ton of time "surfing", I will keep an eye out for things to add to my reader.

Depending on your browser, your operating system, and a number of other variables, your layout probably will not exactly match what you see in the instructional videos. You probably have some things in your Links toolbar that can be removed to make room to display items that are most useful to you.
RSS would have been great for your job search. We'll be revisiting RSS in a later Thing and you'll appreciate it even more.Stay tuned!
