Thing 8: RSS Feeds

I tried out the Google blog search tool and it did pull up a couple of blogs but also a whole lot of randomness that wasn't helpful.  The other links didn't really seem to work so I didn't get anything from them.

I use blogs daily.  I very rarely find these blogs from internet searches.  Most of my blogs are found through other blogs that I read.  Good blogs are often referenced by their peers and that attracts my attention.  The "newest" way that I find blogs is through Pinterest.  Simply following a pin that I like often takes me to a blog that I didn't previously know about.

I definitely love using Feedly to organize my blogs.  I have no desire to visit a blog's actual page unless there is a specific need.  It is so much easier to see all the new blog posts in one location.  I get very annoyed by blogs that are truncated (meaning you have to visit their blog to see the post).  I will usually stop following that blog unless they regularly post amazing stuff!
