My Experience with RSS Feeds
Well I found this assignment fairly easy since I already had a MyYahoo account/ page. Though, I did not realize that it was an RSS feed until I started this project. I really enjoyed having to take the time to find out how I could enhance my page so that it contains important information to me. Before this assignment I basically used it as an easy way to access my e-mail and see top news stories. Since I got the page a couple years ago I have used it a lot, but I think that I will use it even more now. It was hard for me to find an educational news feed, but I did finally find one, and so far I have really enjoyed the stories that have come up. I also like that I can see local and national news all in one place. Through doing this assignment I realized how valuable and useful this page can me, both now and in the future. I also, like how Yahoo has an easy button to add content to your page and that it also provides you with options, without having to search the web for the RSS icon. Yahoo also makes it really easy to organize your page, by allowing you to move things around right from that page. I did not explore any of the other options for displaying RSS feeds, but I was very pleased with the one Yahoo provides. This is something that I will continue to use often and helps me keep current on news and other things. Oh, and one of the best things I found to add to my page was a movie listings tab, where I can add my top theaters and find out show times right from my Yahoo home page! :)
