Discovery Exercise #7.2

Looking through bloglines feeds via subject was a reasonable experience – easy to use & filled with all sorts of links. I liked using google news (will perhaps use this more for work). Found it strange being able to feed to blog comments & subscribe (atom) to other people’s blogs (the whole non-privacy thing feels unnatural to me) – subject searching worked fine, except when unfortunately, some blog comments seemed to get off the subject track somewhat & you found you were looking at ‘all manner of things‘ along the way!
I found that doing a search for feeds or blogs inside a site was useful, as it took you straight to their selection & some even had links to take you further.
I also came across ‘newsonfeeds.com’ which provided an extensive list of aggregators for searching (incl the ones mentioned above). As with all things on the web though, it is wise to be prudent when searching unknown sites ; I‘ll keep searching over the next few days & see if something even better turns up.

It is most likely that I will end up checking the regular websites I use from now on, just to see if the pages I’m on have update feeds available – purely for interest sake of course!
