RSS feeds

I just successfully registered with Google Reader so that I can now follow several RSS feeds. The nice thing about Google Reader, aside from its easy-to-use interface, is that because of my preexisting Google account it automatically brought over the two blogs I am following on Blogger.com (k8wilkins and Gardener's Rant). From there it was a snap for me to add 23 Things at the VHS and, for fun, the sports section of the New York Times (go Giants!). I can see how easy it would be for institutions to get the word out about their news and events by setting up RSS feeds and letting a ton of people know what they are up to. No such thing as reaching too many people with your news and upcoming events information.
