Week 3: Feed My Inbox

This was relatively easy to sign up to and seems like a good way to add feeds. But I found it annoying that you had to know exactly what the url for the site you wanted to follow was - no search facility. And once you opened a window there was no back button, so using the site overall seemed a bit clunky.

Will see how it goes, no doubt it will start filling up my inbox with useless messages - not sure why there has to be a daily message, would be better just when there was something new (or a selection for a weekly update instead of daily). And I did not get any results for www.manukaulibraries.govt.nz but did get several feeds for Auckland Libraries (are we missing out here?).

Don't think there is too much relevance for our customers, it is a good tool for following specific feeds on a personal basis but we would seldom get the opportunity to promote it (we don't look over their shoulders & make suggestions).
