I have just signed up at bloglines.com. I love it. I particularly like
the "clippings" function, which allows me to store articles for later
use. I am also using it to create RSS feeds for Google News searches.
It is a great tool for me personally - but I also see the potential for
students using it to streamline and organize their online research. I
sure would love to create a student activity to get them used to doing
this. But - every good idea comes with its own unique obstacles. In
this case, the obstacle is - what else? - the #%^!@ content filter!
Does anyone know of anything with the same features as bloglines that
our filter might not block? Thanks for your ideas.
