RSS feeds

Weeks 3 already: how time flies especially when one is mucking around trying to fulfil all of the requirements of 23 Things!

RSS feeds and Bloglines Newsreaders

Setting up the Bloglines Account and subscribing to RSS feeds was quite straight forward.
The Using Bloglines Tutorial was very helpful but the "How to find your public Bloglines URL:" instructions were completely misleading. Fortunately Adriana, the RSS feed Guru, was on hand and very, very helpful. Thank you Adriana!

Basically in Bloglines you need to click on
Options (top left hand side of the Bloglines screen), select Blog Settings, create a new username (no spaces), check the Yes publish my Blogroll radio button, Save Changes and copy the second displayed public bloglines url into your blog.
