This weeks post is about RSS feeds that have things to do with Toronto. The Library Journal feed that we were asked to try was really easy because it allowed you to select the application that you wished to use from their page instead of copying and pasting. The other feeds that I now subscribe to prefer the ctrl+c ctrl+v method. They are the following.
Akimbo: which is a website designed arround the visual arts in Toronto. Anything from calls for submissions to exhibits to curatorial/eductional jobs in the field of the arts gets posted on this website. You can also set it up to directly email you about current news, although an RSS feed makes more sense because new postings come out every hour.
Toronto Life: because if you're like me and need to know more about the city you live in, it's good to receive that information faster. I enjoy it for the finance related articles and the best restaurant guide.
Now Magazine: This publication is good for the arts in this city as well. Of particular note are the CD reviews that will direct you to some fantastic music one might otherwise not come across and the little section on gallery openings that will do an article about one of the exhibits currently on display.
The RSS feed system seems like a sound way of taking alot of information and condensing it for portable use.
