Hello to everybody!
I must admit that this adventure in the blogosphere is becoming more and more fascinating. One of the major problems I had during these first weeks managing blogs was the amount of time that I spent in front of the computer’s screen in order to find the piece of information I want. I mean… Whenever I logged on Internet, I had to check all the blogs of the people in my group to read the new posts and their comments to my posts. This task was quite time-demanding! The use of feed aggregators is a wonderful solution in order to save time and avoid getting crazy switching from one blog to another. Bloglines is a free online feed aggregator where you can subscribe the websites and blogs that you visit the most and the feed aggregator informs you when new information is added to those sites and gives you a little summary or the complete version of the new article or posts. The opportunity of creating playlists in Bloglines is another handy help to your online research: in your playlist you subscribe all the blogs or websites that belong to the same group, for example all the blogs of the people in my group, Group C. In this way, I can always have an overall view of all the new posts published by the other members of my group without wasting time in leafing through one personal blog to the other. Fantastic!
Enjoy and spare time using feed aggregators!

Good morrow to you dear colleague. I subscribed on Bloglines but I still haven't understood what syndication is. How ever, little by little things are becoming clearer. See u soon bye!

Hi Elena,
I completely agree with you that feed aggregators help us to save our time and avoid getting crazy switching from one blog to the other. Also the playlist is a fantastic instrument to subscribe all the blogs of the peers in our group and see when they publish they posts.
See you soon!
Bye bye,
Letizia
Hi Elena!! Welcome to our group!
Fist of all: very nice picture!
I agree with you and Letizia: Bloglines can really help us saving time and this is great for us. As far as I am concerned I always have to organize myself when I have to do my e-tivities because I need a lot of time and thanks to a feeds aggregator I think that things are going to be easier for me, or at least faster!
So see you on Monday!

Hi guys, and welcome to our group Elena!! :-)
I think you are perfectly right to say that you have to organize your time when you have to do the e-tivities because it is really time demanding..however, now thanks to feeds and feed aggregators everything is going to be quicker and more straightforward as you don’t always have to look in your peers’ blogs to check if there are updates..isn’t it great?!
I’ll give you the urls of the websites I put on my blog as I noticed that it is impossible to open them from there…sorry!

Hi Elena!
After Giada's words I guess you are in group C as well..So, welcome in!
I think you're right. Feed aggregators are very useful and actually I'm using it right now. You know, I have a veeery slow connection and with blogline I've found the way to prompt the process of posting comments!
Moreover, as I said in my blog I've found other interest feeds to subscribe in! If you want you can do the same switching 'directory' button in the 'feed' page.
Have fun!
Bye,
Zara
