First Post

Hi - I enjoyed our first meeting. Lots of great ideas to think about! One practical request - does anyone know a way that I could be notified when a new post is created on this blog? I've heard of RSS feeds, but am not really sure about how they work.

It was interesting to note that on the Blogger home page they had a link to an article "On the Go with Blogger Mobile" - using your mobile phone to post to your blog. If I had a phone with a built in camera, I'd try it! Maybe this project will give me the motivation I need to update my own technology.

Step 1 - sign up at www.bloglines.com and create an account
Step 2 back to bloglines but if you only wnat our blog go to step 3
Step 3 - click on "My Feeds" tab
Step 4 - click "add' button at top - use easy Subscribe and save our link to favourites - click button
Step 5 - select wen browser type and RIGHT CLICK on "sub with Bloglines" button. Select add to favourites and put it in an easy to find spot in favourites listing.
Step 6 - go to our blog then go to the 'sub with bloglines link in your favourites.
Step7 - click sunbsrcribe. When you go back to Bloglines and click on "My feeds" you'll find it there. When there is a new entry , it will appear in bold with the number of new entries added next to it. Click on the name.
Now I'm exhausted - haven't done it myself so let us know how it goes!
