I've set up a couple of the RSS accounts and find that I really can get a lot of information very quickly. Sometimes to much info. If I don't check it often I get dozens of new articles which is great but I find myself getting lost in them for hours sometimes. It would be wonderful if we had time built into our day to read all the great things that are out there. I am learning to get more selective in the articles that I read. I guess I'm just learning to budget my time better.
I have found some things that are very timely and useful for my classes, which is why we are spending the time setting up and learning how to use this technology. I'm glad I took that time and look forward to learning more about how to use it with my classes in a more effective way.

It is an overwhelming about of information to filter. I also need to get better at how to manage my time when reading all the RSS feeds on my Google Reader account--info. isn't lacking on Web 2.0. I think it is all about practice and use. I also agree with the pie in the sky thought about having time built into our day to "read all the great things that are out there." At this point it isn't built into the High School Teacher's day.
