Thing 10 RSS Feeds

I chose Bloglines to set up 15 blog feeds. Once I got started, it was hard to stop. It was very simple to use. I still can't believe I have never heard of this stuff before. I can see how this will make my life easier, and MUCH more plugged in to current interests/news. I chose several art educator blogs, which will provide new lesson ideas and teaching strategies/tips. I also chose a new word of the day so I can increase my vocabulary, and a cartoon for a quick laugh. On a personal level, I chose a health/fitness/diet link to help stay motivated to create a healthy lifestyle. I also chose a link that gives up to date art competition/contests that I can share with my students who are interested in entering. I'm sure I will continue to discover new uses for this tool.

Thanks for sharing "Word of the Day" site. I may use this for our TV bulletin board next year. Cheri/Gigi

I was interested to read that you found some art education blogs. I've found that I do most of my professional reading on blogs now. It's fascinating to me to have access to the most current thoughts of some of the well-known people in the field AND be able to comment and ask questions!
