Continuing the life-long learning journey I tackled tasks 7, 8, 9 this week. With task 7 I commented on a couple of blogs by my fellow journeymen. With task 8 and 9 I was introduced to RSS feeds and subscribed to 10 news feeds on Bloglines as well as a number of my colleagues blogs. Quite easy really.
I can see a number of benefits of subscribing to RSS feeds as one can target specific areas of interest and get the latest information. I can also see its professional usefulness for libraries with respect to notifying librarians and collections teams of new releases and forth coming publications.
On a personal level I don't think I would use RSS feeds as I already suffer from information overload with emails, internet and social networking.
