Quest 4 Whine and Roses

Phew!

Quest 4 has taken us on a discovery of RSS feeds and adding the feeds we choose to Bloglines. Bloglines is like a pantry to store all of those fun newsfeeds in. All of your feeds are in one place and it makes it easy to find. Part of Discovery exercise was to add at least 10 newsfeeds to our reader after we created an account in Bloglines. Adding the feeds was the fun part - I added 14 feeds - I choose Library related feeds for the purpose of training but later on I may add feeds just for my own interest, like gardening or recipes.

I added Tech Trek and Branches on a Blog to my feeds. Then, decided to add my own blog - (that was a challenge). I had a hard time getting my blog to go public so it could be added in bloglines. I checked my blog settings and everything looked o.k , tried resetting it twice, and still couldn't find my blog on the web.

I emailed Jim and Susan and whined a little- I thought for sure they knew something that I didn't. Closing time rolled around and I went home. After a great cup of She Crab soup from the local diner, I checked the web for my blog - there it was - Yeah! Guess I just needed to be patience and wait for it to do it's stuff.

Time to fill the tub with Rose water and soak awhile-

My day of Whine and Roses has come to an end-
