Thing 10

Thing 10 is my favorite technological innovation covered in class thus far! The thing I like most about Really Simple Syndication sites is the basic concept behind their use; the short video on the 23 Things Site summed this up perfectly! Simply “switching the arrows” to bring all the information to you so that you don’t have to seek out each site’s updates individually is pure genius. It’s also much simpler than I imagined even as I was reading the brief description of Thing 10 on 23 Things’ main page.
This tool is ideal for use in one’s personal life or teaching career because it brings all the online tools that you frequent to one site that is easily and quickly accessible. Time-saving tools like this are crucial to anyone who finds themselves the victim of a hectic schedule from time to time.
Teachers can use RSS readers to keep track of educational websites and blogs that they follow for use in their classrooms; being able to quickly and efficiently access new class materials on a daily basis will help them to better serve their students.
