Ewan had an interesting post about his own reading habits, and the idea of sharing what he reads with others. It seemed such a good idea, that I thought I should follow suit. I had been thinking about how best to do this, and I’d already started working on an Flash feed aggregator that would simply show what I was reading, but I like the idea of sharing the opml file – my only concern is that not everyone will know what to do with it. If I get a moment, this would make a great Captivate movie to explain what to do with it.
So, if you click the little ‘world symbol’ on the glass bar at the top of my site, then you will get my own opml file. Sorry it’s not that well organised (!), but it makes sense to me.
In the comments on Ewan’s post, John made the brilliant point of what about a scotedublogs opml file – would this be good? Would it be categorised? What about if you could subscribe to the kinds that interest you? For example, as a primary teacher, could I subscribe to the folk that are teaching the same stage as me? Could we gather this information? Would people want to share it? What about current initiatives/projects teachers are working on? This would be great instead of wading through all the posts.
