Bloglines and I have been friends for a very long time. I use it mostly for work-related blogs and check it fairly often. I don’t use it much at home, though – I prefer to browse actual websites when there.
So – already having an account and knowing how to add a feed, this was a pretty easy exercise for me. I added Orinda Events – we’ve got a lot of Toddler Lapsits coming up! and then put the list of new DVDs on. I then did a special search for New World War II Historical Fiction. The first two feeds I deleted – I hope I know what all is happening at my library without the Bloglines reminder!!! But the list of new items that are specific to a personal interest – that’s something I want to keep! I hadn’t realized we had that option!
A week or so ago, while playing on my blog, I figured out how to add an RSS feed to my page (look on the left-hand side, under my photos). I went ahead and added a few of those that I have on Bloglines and read regularly. I have to say, though, that I still automatically go to my bookmarks for my Bloglines page to get to them, rather than opening up my blog and going from there. Old habits……
