How to subscribe to my blog

So how do you subscribe to a blog like mine? Or better yet what is a blog anyway? A blog is a relatively new phenomenon, blog is short for web log and basically it’s a way of writing just about anything and putting it on the web. Often it involves using a web application or website with a WYSIWYG (what you see is what you get) editor (basically something that let’s you edit text like MS word would). You write your articles and post them to the web and others can view and sometimes comment.

What has really caught on though is the ability to subscribe to your favorite blogs by using RSS or (real simple syndication). What’s that you ask? RSS is basically the same as organising Television channels but instead you oragnise websites into categories and everytime and update it made you get notified. It’s all part of the web 2.0 buzz basically web 2.0 means a new set of standards for the World Wide Web.

So how do you take advantage of this great new thing? Well if you have Windows Vista already (poor you!) you can use a tool in the gadgets tool bar or so I believe. I don’t actually have Vista but I know it’s in there somewhere. Or you can use a really nice program called RssReader it’s free and it’s easy to use.

Once you have downloaded the program. You will want to subscribe to my blog :) . To do this you need to find the feed which is here.

In RssReader you just need to copy paste this URL and place it into the appropriate category.

If your a Datsun dude / nutter / or enthusiast you may also want to add these blogs too.
