Hi everyone,

 

Did you know that today is RSS Awareness Day? Well, if you`re like me and are constantly looking for ways to attract (and keep) subscribers to your blog or website... Or, you`re just interested in new ways to be more productive, then you may want to get your RSS in gear :-)

 

Here are some fun facts...

 

Fact #1: FeedBurner recently reported that they track approximately 60 million RSS subscribers which represents less than 6% of all Internet users.

 

Fact #2: Google has acquired FeedBurner

 

I find this interesting since the world seems to revolve around Google. Sorry MSN... Good luck on that Yahoo acquisition! Now back to this RSS thing...

 

If you absolutely don`t know jack about RSS, my friends at rssday.org have put together a fantasctic intro. Check `em out!

 

Finally, I`ve posted an "awareness" article on my blog this morning... use this permalink: http://blog.homebusinesshints.com/2008/05/01/rss-the-news-and-you.aspx

 

Okay, I know your busy but, can I ask you one favor? Please participate in the RSS poll. There`s no obligation and no one will call -- But wait, there`s more...

 

Now if you really want to make me happy, please subscribe to my feed... via RSS of course... click here

 

Thank you and have a great RSS day

Thanks for your input, Steve. I will attest to that. Lots of noise out there.

On the other hand, I have found that using an RSS reader helps me manage info that I want or need more efficiently.

 

Well, see you in the funny papers. (Zingerding site rocks!)
