This was a first time for me signing up for bloglines. I find it interesting to see the important headlines from the newspaper, whether I find them interesting or not, is another thing. I like being able to see the posting that other members are putting in without searching each blog. It can be a big time saver. I am not sure that I would use it so much in my personal life. I really like to see the whole paper not just what they feel is important.
I could see a media center specialist and/or teachers using this for their students. Each student could create a blog and then the teacher and/or students could put the blogs in the blogline. The students could put there daily assignments on the blog and this could save the teacher from looking at each blog for the assignments. It could help save paper and the teacher can access them from home without taking all of the assignments home with them.
For me, I liked looking at site that I frequently visit and put them on with the RSS feed. I did do some copy and paste on the URL for sites that I was not sure had RSS feed.
The school has blocked most of the blogs with the exception of some newspapers and such.
The links that I included were newspapers and some blogs from the 23 things. I don't know that I will use this tool much but will continue to explore the bloglines and invite teachers to try it out.
