I'm running a little behind this week, but I've just completed tasks 1 and 2 by setting up several RSS feeds to my Google reader account.
I found this incredibly easy. The instructions on the 12 Things blog were very clear. I was a bit surprised by how many sites do not have an automatic feed through to google, making it easy to add them to my reader, but it was very easy to copy and paste the URL in to the reader.
I can see this as being really useful. We currently don't use RSS feeds as well as we could on our library website, but this will be remedied soon. I seem to spend most of my time whilst doing the "things" making notes of stuff to add to our website.
I'm really looking forward to the next thing on twitter. I've had a twitter account for a few years but I've never really taken to it. I think that's because I am a little uncertain about what kind of online identity to present.
We also have a library twitter account and this is also under-used, so I'm hoping to put that right after the next thing.
It's good to be back :-)
