RSS Feeds – An embarrassing confession

I’m not sure why, but I’ve never used RSS feeds.  That’s not to say that I’ve never set up RSS feeds, but once set up, I’ve never used them.  I set up pageflakes.  I set up Google Reader.  I just never went back and read them.

Maybe they weren’t integrated into my daily routine.  Maybe things were hectic and they fell by the wayside.  In any case, with two failed attempts under my belt, I’m trying a third time.

So, in the name of making things easy, this afternoon, I’ve set them up in Outlook.  Outlook is not a hot rod feed reader, but per my previous post, I spend a lot of time there.

This is part of my effort to expand my PLN, so I’d love suggestions of feeds that I should add on the topics of education technology.  I want to know what other people are trying in their classrooms.  What Web 2.0 are they finding works well and what needs improvement?  What motivates students?

Now, wish me luck and here’s hoping that the third time will be the charm.
