Do You Squidoo? - 05/08/07 07:52 PM

I'm trying to Squidoo but could use a little help. What's an RSS feed and where do you get one? LOL

This is what I have so far.

If you don't know from Squidoo, it's kind of like blogging or Myspace, I guess? (I've never done Myspace either.)

Anyone have a squidoo you'd like to share so I can see what it's supposed to look like?

Thanks for any and all help!

I tried a squidoo a while back, but became frustrated quickly. It's so slow to load.

A friend of mine has created a squidoo site for our work together. She has done a fantastic job.

Basically, it is a bit like blogging, but it is considered more of a lense. You can add links and resources around a topic. The more often you update it, or people look at it, the higher the rating, like any website.

RSS feeds are daily feeds, right? Like if you want to hook up with news on your topic, the feed to your site daily? I am not to techie, but hang out with techs. I will see what I can find out for you.

Thanks Anno,
You can add RSS feeds to your squidoo but I don't know where you'd find those. And I was wondering if there are any book related, or writing world related ones.

Here is a directory of RSS feeds. There are tons of others. Just google and do a search for RSS Feed directory.

Thank you Ktri,
I should have thought of googling it!
I guess I was having a Memo-pause!
