RSS Feeds - a new addiction

I am not new to the internet. In fact, our apartment does not have much in the way of traditional entertainment, i.e, a television. We spend a LOT of time online and of course, each have our own laptop in our wireless world. I knew about RSS feeds, but I didn’t know about RSS feeds until today.

I have an older iBook and did not have RSS capabilities in Safari. I knew about Sage, an extension of Firefox, but I had never played with it until today. And now I am hooked! I am going to all of my favorite sites to see what kinds of RSS feeds they have. So far, I have subscribed to most of my favorites except for one of my staples, NPR, as they have multiple feeds based on specific programming. Plus, I am still a little upset that NPR discontinued their own blog, Mixed Signals, and still have not given its web readers an alternative.

But, back to the topic. I am really enjoying my new RSS addiction so far and recommend Sage to anyone looking for RSS capability in Firefox. So far, so good.
