Thing 7: Finding RSS Feeds

I selected the following RSS resources: News from the U.S. Department of Education, Fitness and Nutrition, Education, Sunday Book Review and Best Sellers from the NYT.  I searched the feeds mainly from U.S. Government and New York Times RSS feeds.  I tried to limit my search to topics related to Education but ended up finding topics I personally liked. 
From the America.gov I selected the section Education and Youth to receive feeds from in my RSS reader.
I also created a Google Alert on the topic of English as a Foreign Language and one for Angola.
RSS can be really helpful to my job and life as you can have a different sources providing you information about a topic of your choice.  In this way, you can compare information much faster.  I can see myself using RSS jobs’ feeds, when time comes, for example – I actually found a job feed from the U.S. Government.
