Week 4, Thing 9

This week's activity exposed me to resources I didn't know were available, the ability to search for RSS feeds.  I experimented with the suggested websites.  Overall I didn't enjoy the process.  I would much rather add RSS feeds as I find them, rather than search for them.  The websites were not visually pleasing and I found them to be disorganized.  The only exception was Technorati Search http://technorati.com/ .  It was impressive to me that the level of authority could be chosen as a search option.  I have never come across a website with that searching capability.  Once teachers and libraries are familiar with how to search for RSS feeds, they can serve as valuable tools.
