So Jewel has recently become enamored with following a plethora of blogs via RSS feeds, and it occurred to me that some of our readers might want to do the same. I figured it'd be a good idea for my first post to show you how.
The first thing you need to do is find the link at the bottom of each post that says "Subscribe to: Posts (Atom)." Clicking on this link will prompt you to set up a live bookmark. If you're using Firefox, your browser will look like this:
Click on the "Subscribe Now" button. Your browser will ask you where you want to put your subscription (in a bookmark folder, on your browser's bookmarks toolbar, etc). Hit ok, and then you'll have a folder labeled "Evicvictors" (unless you changed the name when you subscribed).
The beauty of RSS feeds is that anytime we put up a new post, you'll automatically find a new bookmark in our blog's folder. New posts will have the RSS radio-wave icon next to them; posts you've read will have the blog's icon. Pretty easy, and pretty neat. Your favorite blogs delivered to your digital doorstep, and you don't even have to wait for the dog to bring it to your feet.
Enjoy, and happy reading.
*A couple notes: Don't try this with Google Chrome; I did, and it didn't work quite right. Also, you should be able to get to the same subscription page by going to your browser's "Bookmarks" menu and choosing "Subscribe to this page > Subscribe to 'Evicvictors' - RSS."
