Job with no name: Day 16: Feed Me

RSS Mmmmmm

Feed me! A bit of time over the weekend to catch up on thousands of unread RSS feeds. I’m hooked. The best (most efficient, cost effective, quickest, most up to date, participatory, and addcitive) way for me to learn seems to be an hour of RSS feeds a day!

Unofrtunately for the last month my output has been exceeding my input. So I’ve just enjoyed a couple of hours catching up on what has been happening across the learning world.

For a quick guide to RSS (Really SImple Syndication) see this great video introduction.

Now you hopefully know what RSS is, you can have a quick look at the learning blogs I try to keep up with.

OPML - a list of feeds

If you’d like to plug these into your own  RSS Reader you can download  my OPML to import. OPML is just a nice way to make hierarchical lists, so great for listing my RSS feeds to share with you.

My RSS subscriptions relating to Teaching

All my RSS subscriptions (includes topics of God, Life, Teaching & Technology)

(For very good reasons you’ll need to change the file extension from .txt to .xml before importing into your own RSS Reader.)

Finally, it took me a while to find one that works, but here is a lovely little utility to turn OPML into gorgeous HTML.
