It was great to learn a bit more about RSS feeds..I knew they existed but I'll admit I never really made use of them, and now it's difficult to see why not. It's great to be able to have everything on one page, so I can just skim over my subscriptions to see if there is anything interesting without having to load each individual blog site.
Here are a number of feeds that I've decided to follow:
http://www.redcarpet-fashionawards.com/
I love looking at fashion..This blogger has made a site where she takes note of the clothes worn by stars on the red carpet, identifies the designer/collection and then posts a side by side comparison (and she makes note of the accessories and shoes as well). It must be incredibly time consuming to run this blog but it's always interesting to browse and I love checking the blog for new posts!
http://southerngothicproductions.blogspot.com/
I subscribed to this blog a while back, it hasn't really been active in a while as they now have their own website. The blog is run by a production company (they produce indie films and small productions in North Carolina). It's just fascinating to see the day to day things they do to keep the company running and all the projects they're working on.

Thinking back to my first post in this blog about always learning new things ; I came across this feed which is called 'WiseGeek ; Learning something new every day'. Each day, they post a question and answer on a random topic (Today's one is 'What is a flammulated owl?'), it's like the 'Burning Question' part of the West Australian newspaper or 'Did you know' oddspot facts found with Libra products!

This is an easy way to follow the breaking news headlines in Perth, just keep up to date with the latest headlines before they show up in the evening news or the following day's newspaper.
http://ampersand-design.blogspot.com/
My first blog mentioned a post on Penguin's Hardback classics done by this blogger. It's someone who has an interest in all things design and I've always found the posts interesting. Will admit I love looking at interior design and magazines but I've never been game enough to try it for myself. Who knows what the future holds!
Am keeping an eye out for some interesting library/book ones to also follow. Will definitely be making more use out of the RSS feeds in future :)
There are some great blogs that you are following, will have to have a look myself, thanks!
ReplyDeleteI'm going to rush off and subscribe to wisegeeks. Great blogs!
