Adding an RSS Feed to my blog

I had real trouble with this one so in the end I added a link to my Bloglines account to get around the hassles I was having trying to add a feed when customising my Blogger account. Adding a feed did not accept any of the urls I put in so somewhere in the process I was glitching big time. Adding the link worked and immediately takes me straight to Bloglines. I think I'll go back and edit a bit and add Google Reader to this list too, at least until I work out the fine details of adding a feed page element to my blog ( it will come in time I'm sure)

Week 4 - RSS Feeds

I found this entire exercise useful in that I've been using Google Reader for a while (when I remember to go check it!) and now to give Bloglines a go I find myself comparing the two.
I tend to not utilise these RSS feeds on a daily basis. Often this is because of lack of time, also due to the display format of Google Reader. I much prefer the screen display of Bloglines. Both are easy to manage, though the sheer volume of daily feeds that can come through can be a little daunting. I like the aspect of being able to keep completely up to date with various subject fields and areas of interest.
I'm still trying to streamline the whole 'subscribe to this feed' aspect from the website end rather than the Google Reader / Bloglines end. But as with other things I like the facility for achieving the same end result using different methods.
My favourite RSS Feed subscription? The quirky Budget Fashionista. It's a girl thing.
