RSS feeds for IS 6100 and IS 7010

by billso on Tuesday, 17 July 2007

There’s noth­ing that new in the IS 6010 and IS 7010 RSS feeds that I set up on July 3, but users should be able to select and sub­scribe to either of these feeds in their web browser, by using the RSS icon in their browsers address bar or tool­bar. A browser-based sub­scrip­tion is a good option for users who use their own com­puter to check this site.

Which feed is which?

For users who read this blog on sev­eral dif­fer­ent com­put­ers or their mobile phone, try a Web-based RSS reader. Just click the RSS logo shown on the IS 6100 or IS 7010 course pages. There are sev­eral good read­ers from Blog­lines, Yahoo, Google and other services.

The sub­scrip­tion pages also offer an email option. Yes, users can have the blog arti­cles for their course emailed to them on a reg­u­lar basis.

There’s no good rea­son for any of my stu­dents to sub­scribe to all of my RSS feeds. My stu­dents should pick the spe­cific feed for their course:

For IS 6100, use http://rss.billso.com/billso6100/

For IS 7010, use http://rss.billso.com/billso7010/

For the entire billso.com blog, includ­ing every arti­cle in both of the feeds shown above, use http://rss.billso.com/billsocom

For more infor­ma­tion about RSS feeds and how I use them in my courses, read my Jan­u­ary 23rd arti­cle enti­tled “What’s all this about a blog?” or this more detailed arti­cle at softwaregarden.com
