Just hours after I posted my first entry on this weblog [my original weblog at http://ltoulon.edublogs.org/], I received an email from someone asking me to check out their social bookmarking service BlinkList.  I was amazed that he was able to find my post so fast.  I then remembered there is an RSS button on my blog which edublogs automatically added.  So I understand that my blog automatically has a web feed (RSS feed) on it and anyone with a web feed reader (aggregator) can receive updates to my blog automatically through their reader.  I have never used a reader before and started doing some research on it.

I did a search for RSS Reader on Google and came up with 105,000,000 hits!  So where to start?  I started with Bloglines and added a couple of Blogs that I read regularly.  I would be interested to hear other recommendations.
