Really Simple, part 2

A little while back, we told you how to subscribe to this blog by e-mail. We also told you we’d let you know how to view all of the blogs or frequently updated sites you like in one convenient location.

We tried and tried to come up with a simple explanation, but decided we could do no better than this piece of excellence from Common Craft:

Click the “Play” triangle for an introduction to RSS. Not quite simple enough? That’s OK, at least now you know what your questions are. Ask away in the comments.

We know, sometimes you forget to check KSC100. That’s OK. You know it’s hilarious and poignant, but you’re busy.

Do you wish you could get all this hilarity and poignancy emailed straight to you, so you don’t have to remember to check?

You can, friends. You can.

Here is the miracle of the RSS feed.

Go to http://feedblitz.com.

Scroll down to where it will allow you to enter a url, and enter http://keeneweb.org/ksc100 in the box.

The next screen will ask you to enter your e-mail address and verify that you’re not a robot. Do that, and voila! KSC100 updates direct to your e-mail.

Feedblitz is not the only service that will allow you to do that, but it is an easy one. And it will allow you to do the same for other sites you want to follow, too.

Some of you may be familiar with, or interested in, subscribing to a lot of different sites or blogs, and being able to go look at them all in one place, without the distraction of a dozen e-mails. We’ll show you how next week.
