I feel like I can grasp the concept of RSS, but I had a lot of difficulties working with it the ways described in the videos. I had to copy the URLs for both weblogg-ed.com and for the 2cents blog. When I follwed the directions in the video for the 2cents blog I never saw the 'coded' page. I do like the Bloglines bookmarklet. Going back to the RSS concept, are educators reading the numerous posts made on their favorite blogs daily? It seems impossible. I imagine they are just looking for the posts that most fit their needs and interests. Still seems like a lot of time that will be spent on blogs when very little time is left at the end of a school day.
The RSS does seem like it will be handy for keeping track of sites and blogs I look at in my personal life and for my professional development and use. I plan to take a few days to simply monitor the few sites I have subscribed to and continue looking for other blogs that might be of interest to me or to others.

If the bookmarklet works, that's what you should use.
ResponderEliminarI know RSS can be frustrating -- but so worth it in the end. It helps keep information organized and manageable.
Keep going, you're doing great.
It does seem like we could spend a lot of time looking for good blogs, and we are so busy already. I am a fellow Spanish teacher, although I teach at the elementary-middle school level and my classes meet once a week. If, while browsing blogs, you find any really helpful blogs on foreign language learning, please let me know. You can post it on my blog "Spanish Class."
