The second task I would like you to accomplish is to set up an RSS feed (if you do not already have one), to monitor the blog posts of your classmates and other bloggers you might follow. You will be asked to verify that you have completed this task by generating a screen capture showing some of the feeds you are following. My suggestion as a tool would be Feedly, but there are options (e.g., Reeder, Flipboard). You want to read a short page I wrote on RSS readers. The basic idea of a reader is to keep track of updates to multiple sites and which of these updates you have at least viewed. The intent is to increase your efficiency in keeping up on sources you have decided to follow.
