RSS feeds


Welcome all new parents and students to the blog. I want to take a moment to tell you about RSS feeds. One of the cool things about this blog is that it is also a RSS feed. The cool thing is that you can subscribe to this feed to let you know when a new post is made. You can go to any internet search engine and search for RSS feed readers. If you use a Microsoft software (like Outlook, Outlook Express, or Windows Live Mail) to check your email, you can easily subscribe to the feed. In the upper right corner click on the RSS button. It looks like the picture above. Then click on subscribe to feed. Now go back to your email and look under feeds. The posts to the blog will now show up like email. Whenever there is a new post, it will show a number in the line, just like new email.

The only disadvantage is that you cannot watch video from your email page. You will have to visit the blog on the internet site to do so. If you need any help signing up, check with your help button on the email software you use. Just type in RSS feeds. If you get desperate, you can give me a call. I just charge $50 for tech support.
