To RSS or not to RSS? Or perhaps what the heck is the point of RSS? If you are like me these are some questions you might be pondering. RSS or Really Simple Syndication (I think not so simple syndication might be more appropriate, NSSS) is a type of web feed. These web feeds are designed to be used in conjunction with sites that are frequently updated, like perhaps other blogs. News might be another popular form of RSS feed. However, in this day and age one could probably use an RSS feed for a site with just about an type of information. The benefit of the RSS feed is that readers can subscribe to these feeds and thereby receive personal updates when a site is updated. For RSS amateurs such as myself, googlereader reader.google.com might be a good place to start. So, if you are feeling apprehensive about RSS or still don’t quite see the usefulness start here, get your feet wet and get updated!

Now, I would just like to share a little tid bit about my self. I am obsessed with the winter olympics. All of it-every sport. I am snowboarding around my house, lugeing in the bathtub and skating everywhere. Here is a little video of my favorite snowboarder and fellow red-head Shaun White on my other favorite’s , Ellen D. show. I am currently searching for clips of hum from his outrageous snowboarding last night and will promptly share them!
