Really simply, eh?

I've pretty much ignored the buzz over RSS feeds up until now, deciding that, for my own purposes, the best way to streamline my online time and stop frittering away time reading blogs is simply to spend less time online reading blogs. I really don't waste that much time clicking aimlessly away at blogs and waiting for them to load (we have a fast connection) and I'm usually eating or doing something else productive at the same time, so the time saving factor is negligible.

On the other hand, I've heretofore neglected to look into adding an RSS feed to my blog for the simple fact that it seemed too conceited - to syndicate myself?! To assume that there are hordes of people waiting with bated breath for morsels of wisdom to spring from my keyboard? It turns out, however, that there is at least one person who would appreciate it, so upon request (hi, Lisa!) I've turned on the settings to allow full RSS feeds. I assume that's all I need to do. If it doesn't work or if I must needs tinker more with codes and suchlike, by all means please advise, all you RSS fans and experts.

Yay!! I'll be able to keep up with you better now. It's nice to have an "inbox" of rss feeds so you know when your friends post. Such a time-saver!

I have to admit that I am thrilled! I use RSS since we have horribly slow dial-up and it cuts online loading time by half! :-)

Darn, I usually check in regularly to see if you've updated, but completely missed this last spate of posts. So, yes, way to sydicate yourself!
