We made this video for our friends (and yours) that haven’t yet felt the power of our friend the RSS reader. We want to convert people… if you know someone who would love RSS and hasn’t yet tried it, point them here for 3.5 minutes of RSS in Plain English.

I ran this by a less tech savvy librarian and she assured me that it was indeed in plain English. It requires the viewer be familiar with blogs and have a desire to keep up with them. I could wish for a mention of the number of other types of websites that have feeds these days. But if I ever do another feed class I’ll come here for ideas.
