No time to visit a blog or website to see what new information has been posted? Why not get new posts delivered to you?
On The Edublogger, there are two ways you can be notified when I post new information.
Email Notification
The first–and potentially easiest–is to sign up for email notification. However the better way is to use a Reader (see instructions below).
If you look in the right sidebar you will see this link.
Simply click on the link, enter your email address, enter the anti-spam word and then click on “Complete Subscription Request.” You’ll receive an email asking you to activate your subscription, click on the link to activate your email notification. Now you’ll receive an email notifying you when I add new posts or information.
Subscribe in a Reader
The better way if you want to follow a number of different sites is to subscribe in a Reader rather than be updated by email.
Most blogs and news sites now use RSS to notify readers of new content. Sites that do provide updates using RSS will have one or more of the icons you see on the right. RSS stands for “Really Simple Syndication.” It’s simply a way for new information to come to you whenever it’s put online. You don’t need to worry about what it means–just learn how to use it.
If you already use a Reader (like Google Reader, Bloglines or NetVibes) either:
- Copy and paste the URL of The Edublogger website into your Reader
- Or in my right side menu and click on the link for Subscribe by Feed Reader.
Or, if you aren’t using a Feed Reader I suggest you try Google Reader (www.google.com/reader).
