# 9 Week 4 Really Simple Syndication - Bloglines

For RSS thing, I chose blogline instead of google reader as I practice and subscribed numbers of feeds. I tried to find way to link the bloglines of my own but I couldn't find a way so I attatched the Screen dump of my bloglines page.

'Bloglines' is quite simple to register because what you need is only your email address. They still provide blogging options but you don't need to make it unless you really need it. I made 10 rss subscriptions by copying the rss subscription pages to rss add function in 'Bloglines'. Billboard.com was a bit tricky as it automaticlly generate pop-up window for desktop RSS Reader only. I just type the rss address of billbord.com in the bloglines and it did work.

I learned about RSS last year and have been using Google Reader but I don't tend to use it at all. Many of the RSS only shows part of articles so that I have to go the web pages if I want to read and numbers of to-be-read lists overwhelms me so I avoid and pretend there are nothing to read -.-;. It is actually convenient function but when time goes by the articles becomes like junk mails. I think that one might one to be careful and really organised when he/she decides to use it. Or RSS developer may need to provide more advanced refining tools for user.
