RSS Feeds

RSS stands for Really Simple Syndication. Please watch the video to get a clear explanation of how they work.




These 3 sites are popular RSS organizers. If you have a google email account, I recommend just using their google reader and IGoogle to keep track of all your favorite sites.

Once you have signed up for one of the accounts above, come back here and look for either of these 2 symbols on the page up near or in the toolbar.


Click on either symbol and follow the instructions for sending it to your location of choice. This makes it easy for you to know when I have added something to the blog, it will show up right on your home page or your favorite feed organizer.

Wiki's

A Wiki is a webpage that anyone can edit. Wiki's are a good way to work together with someone else, in real-time if you like, and can be used to share with as many people as you wish.
Please watch the video below to get a better explanation.




Now that you have watched the video, post a comment by clicking on the 'comments' word at the bottom of this blog entry. Your comment should be about your impression of a wiki and/or how you think you might be able to use one in my course.

You can create your own free wiki account on wikispaces.com
I will ask you several times this year to use your wiki and feel free to turn assignments into me on your wiki.
