Thing 6

Now RSS has some exciting potential. I have to confess that as a bit of a sci-fi/fantasy geek, I'm more comfortable keeping track of imaginary happenings rather than the mundane reality.

I have hope for RSS to transform my woefully lacking current events knowledge. Currently, I browse headlines from a local news station on the web. Radio and TV are too sporadic. Newspapers are unweildy and messy. Magazines are loaded with slant/opinion. Now I have hope for getting just the facts on all sorts of interesting topics at my fingertips. I'll look at them on my terms, not some arbitrary TV schedule.

I like the RSS thing. I will continue to use it. It will just take time for it to become a habit.
