RSS: [|What is it?]

RSS stands for “Really Simple Syndication” and is a file format for delivering regularly updated information over the web.

Just think about the websites and news information sources you visit. It takes time to visit those sites and find the text you want to read. RSS is a way for you to visit all those sites in one place and instantly find the new information. You need to use a free piece of web software called a RSS reader. Bloglines is one reader I'm going to show you how to use.

Tags used to describe the above photo


 * Social bookmarking** is the practice of saving bookmarks to a public web site and describing them with tags. You register with a social bookmarking site, typically a free service, which lets you store bookmarks, add tags of your choice, and designate your individual bookmarks as public or private. You can search for resources by keyword, person, or popularity and see the public bookmarks, tags, and classification schemes that users have created and saved. They typically give you a little tool called a “bookmarklet” that is on your browser toolbar. When you get to a web site you like, you click on the tool, and it saves the bookmark into the web service

Using a social bookmarking tool like del.icio.us, anyone see your bookmarks and you can republish them on your blog using a badge. You can also use a "community tag" so everyone can share. We have "NPTECH" tag that people who work in nonprofit technology use to share information.
