RSS

I can’t seem to get teachers to buy into RSS. I suppose it’s not the easy thing to understand, but there doesn’t seem to be any interest in adding to their Bloglines, let alone using RSS with kids. They seem to really gravitate toward wikis, less on blogging.

I wonder why that is. Is RSS to difficult too understand? Is it too labor intensive to get your aggregator stocked with feeds? For me, my Bloglines has become my virtual desktop. I discover and learn so much. In fact, recently, it’s been getting a little out of hand. Earlier in April I was away for almost two weeks. I did find time to sift through everything, but there were so many articles I wanted to dig into more. So I saved them in my aggregator. As of today, I have 99 items to work through. I know there is good stuff in them, though. I think I need to put some time aside each day just to start working though the large number of posts. If only there were more minutes in a day.... downer

Anyone have any thoughts on getting people fired up about RSS?
