Have you taken advantage of the RSS feed on any of your daily blog reads? I did about 6 months ago and I'm hooked. I can get them thrown right into my email box or have them bookmarked on top.
The RSS feed updates you on new posts, or even old posts that somehow relate to a key word - like your company name (maybe this is how the Apple informant found me so quickly ...) or "Photoshop Hints." Just another way to keep our daily lives a little simpler.
"How do you do it?" you say. Well it's simple.
Let's start with the basic RSS feed. If you're on a blog that has the feed, you just hit that funky little RSS in the upper right hand corner. This will place your RSS on your bookmark bar.
Most updated mail programs already include the email-notification feature. For instance, if you're using Mac's Mail program - just go into your "Mail" main menu and scroll down to "Add RSS Feeds." You can either include the bookmarked feed provided by the all-powerful (but not always web-browser compatible) Safari, or select a specific URL - perhaps you'd like to select a little blog at 100percentfreshc2.blogspot.com - I'm just throwing that out there.
Speaking of web-browser compatibility, you've heard about Flex right? The new Adobe application that helps you get things right for all browsers. Check out the upcoming event at WCTC on February 6 (www.milwaukeeaug.com) or drop Kevin an email.
