A clarification on RSS feed readers
After reading my entries on RSS (listed at the end of this post), a friend decided to try Google reader, to subscribe to this blog. Yay!
But she asked me a great question that made me realize I wasn’t clear enough on at least one point: She asked if subscribing via Google Reader meant that she needed a Gmail account, or if she’d get the posts in her regular email account.
I think there might be two confusing points here. One might be my comments about how, with RSS, the posts “come to you.” To a lot of folks, that means email.
And to add to that confusion, Google does have an email service, and when I log onto the Reader, it asks me to enter my email and password.
Ok, Google, that’s confusing as heck to people new to RSS! (more…)
