Thing #4 is all about the joys of RSS. I am already very much a fan of Google Reader. I used to use Bloglines, but I switched to Google Reader because I liked the look of it more, and I felt it was easier to use. So, this "thing" was a quick one for me since I already had an account set up and tons of feeds that I subscribe to. If it wasn't for the reader, I would never be able to keep up with all the blogs and other RSS feeds that I find interesting. Plus, if I miss checking things for a day or two, its all right there the next time I log into the reader.
RSS in itself is such an amazing piece of technology. When I think of Web 2.0, RSS is one of the first things that come to mind. The fact that we are now able to integrate that into our catalog and some different areas of the website is phenomenal. What a groundbreaking way to bring the information that people want right into their hands (or computer screens, as it may be). RSS has revolutionized the way that people get the information they desire.
