Thing 11

Who know finding blogs could be so easy?!?! I never realized search engines existed solely for the purpose of finding new blogs.  I thought both blogsearchengine.org and technorati.com were especially user friendly and provided comprehensive lists of blogs.   I did not find the Educblog award site very helpful, as I experienced technical difficulties when trying to use the site.  I found some excellent blogs for history teachers.  These were my favorites: http://ushistoryeducatorblog.blogspot.com/http://worldhistoryeducatorsblog.blogspot.com/http://teachingunitedstateshistory.blogspot.com/.  These were the most frequently updates and useful blogs.  I could have spent the majority of the day reading these blogs.  I found this website, which allows a person to search for RSS feeds with a specific content, http://ctrlq.org/rss/.  However, I think the easiest way to find RSS feeds is to simply frequent your favorite website and see if they offer the service.  Looking for websites solely to finds one with RSS feeds just to fill a feed up seems pointless.
