What the heck is an RSS Feed?




When I first started reading blogs I had no clue what an RSS Feed was. Now I can’t live without it. It’s an easy way to get updates from your favorite blogs and news sites without visiting the actual website. For those unfamiliar with an RSS Feed and  how it works, Simple Mom has a great post explaining it, in a lot more detail.

You can subscribe via a feed reader such as Google Reader, which is what I use. You can also receive updates from my blog to your email address. When I first started subscribing to blogs I did that but I found I prefer to get all my updates in a reader for quick access.  Either way you subscribe it is free.

Click here if you’d like to subscribe to my site. That link will give you the option of selecting a reader, or the option to receive email updates.

If you would like to recieve updates via email, you can also  enter your email address in the box at the top of the left sidebar, where it says “Subscribe to my blog via email”. No spam, just blog updates.

You can also click on the little orange feedburner icon after each post, where it says “New here? Subscribe to Unexpected Bliss or have it delivered via email”.

        It was a weird change at first, but now I cannot live without Google Reader. It’s a huge timesaver for me!

        I used to read blogs and think, what is that RSS button? I was clueless, but now I love it too. So much simpler.
