RSS feeds

I completed the exercise of adding RSS feeds a couple of days ago, and was feeling unsure about the value of the whole RSS concept. I had the feeling that I was likely to waste more time than I saved. However, when I logged in today, I was pleasantly surprised-I was not overwhelmed with posts, it was easy to see what was new, and it only took me a few moments to check the posts. I think that I will be tempted to fiddle with it to set up the blogs that really interest me, to make full use of the tool. From a library perspective it could be a great way to help get our message to the customer, with minimal exertion on their part - definately worth exploring more.
