Web 2.0 - Week 3 - RSS Feeds

I have to say that I found the RSS feeds a bit confusing at first. I thought they were something that you put on your blog. I didn't realize that you had a whole separate account for the feeds. So I signed into Google Reader and created a small profile. Then I subscribed to cnn.com and national geographic.com. It was interesting to learn how to use the RSS feeds. I can see how they became so popular; they are quite convenient. Everything is in one place! And nowadays especially, anything that is easy, fast and convenient is popular.
