Subscribe to the iloveuab.com RSS Feed!

Don’t know what RSS is? Here is an exert from a post where I explained it some…

If you are starting to become a fan of iloveuab.com, I have a few tips for you. First off I recommend that you subscribe to our RSS Feed. RSS stands for (among other things) Really Simple Syndication. Now, RSS is probably really foreign to a lot of people, but at the same time very familiar (they just don’t know it). I’ll explain it to you where you can understand: Take Facebook’s News Feed for example, the concept is very simple. Whenever two of your friends break up, Facebook broadcasts it to your (and many other people’s) News Feeds. This let’s you stalk all of your friends from one simple location, the News Feed. If it were not for the news feed you would have to go to each and everyone of you friends facebook pages each day to see if they have new pictures, status updates, or cool new notes about 25 CrAzY ThAnGs AbOuT mE ThAt YoU AlReAdY KnOw!!!! A RSS Reader (Facebook News Feed) melds together with many RSS Feeds (Facebook Friends) to serve this same purpose. It prevents you from having to view all of your favorite sites every single day one at a time, RSS localizes your interests to save you time. The best way for you to learn about RSS is to try it. I personally use Google’s Feed Reader, it is quite handy. RSS is great, almost every single site has a Feed of some sort. Some of the feeds that I am currently subscribed to are Failblog, iloveuab.com (of course), Free stuff on Craigslist (Birmingham), and Breaking News in the Birmingham Area. You can get some free interesting stuff from that Craigslist feed, I probably shouldn’t have given that idea away. Anyways, play around with RSS, it’s going to be the standard soon (really it already is).

Figure it out will ya?
