RSS Feed

This bloglines and RSS business is very interesting. I've been tracking 10 blogs on this for the past week, and think this is a very useful tool. I was not familiar with it before. Since learning about it, I am noticing the little RSS feed icon on a lot more web pages. I have to say that at first, it was a little difficult to navigate the blogline, and it took me a while to find the correct way to add new blogs to the feed. But that's all under control now. I don't exactly have a link for it, but one of the best things I discovered about using the aggregator is that you can subscribe to get an RSS feed on a search engine result. I thougtht that was very interesting. Through the search engine feed, and looking through its results on "This Day in History" I was able to find a couple of websites that I enjoyed:
