I am totally bewildered by the idea of RSS feeds. Never would have the foresight to think such a thing imaginable. I can have the blogs, news etc that I want delivered to me. I was really thrilled to be able to add my friend's blog site to to my new Google Reader account. He and his new wife recently moved to Denmark to live for a while due to work commitments and they started up a travel blog. Now I can have their new blog posts delivered to me. Brilliant!
How could this be used in the classroom? Students could subscribe to websites related to their research topics and have up to date information delivered to them. Perhaps even the blog sites of thier peers. I'll introduce this to the class as part of their research topic and see where it may lead.
