I have experimented with RSS feeds before and believe they would be a good way to keep library users informed about new items of interest. Unfortunately not very many government related website that we use (such as the UK Home Office) seem to have RSS feeds. I also think that one could become overwhelmed with information resulting from the feeds.
I used Google reader and like the way you can create subject folders for the various RSS feeds. I couldn't find out how to easily add an RSS feed from a website I have just visited to my Reader account. I just copied the URL and then logged in to Google Reader and pasted it in. But is there an easier way? - this way seemed a bit cumbersome.
