Razer Megasoma Review

Razer Megasoma is a hybrid of a hard and a soft mouse mat; If you love the softness of a soft mat but want to have the speed of a hard mat, Razer Megasoma delivers (this is debatable and I guess more like a personal preference). Razer Megasoma sits somewhere in between, combining the best [...]

How to explain RSS to your non techie friends







by Michael Aulia on 8 May, 2008

in Technology



RSS Feed IconI was browsing some other blogs through Entrecard.com, and found a nice post that embeds a video explaining what RSS is. It’s a very good video and simple to understand.

Honestly, I didn’t even know what RSS is all about until the beginning of this year :) (Yes, It’s true!)

If you want to know the basic of what RSS is all about or if a friend asks you about it, just point them to this video (read more for the video) :)

So you understand what an RSS feed now? If you like my posts and would like to know when I post a new one, you can either use the old way (bookmark my site and re-visit it every now and then) or try the new way with RSS feed!

*Persuasion mode ON* You can either subscribe to my RSS feed using your favorite RSS reader, or if you haven’t got one, use the Google Reader as mentioned on the video. You can simply click on this button below to add my RSS feed to your Google Reader:

PS: I still fall in love with the “old ways” though, lol

Haha I don’t know, Vickie.. I just enjoy typing the URL on the bar and being overjoyed by seeing something new ^^ Probably one of the thing why my personality is melancholic-phlegmatic heh heh.

I remember a few good ones (not just blogs, but a few forums and some gaming sites :D )

For the rest, there’s always a “bookmark” lol

Your blog’s design is really nice, and the posts interesting. I’ve already seen this video some time ago, and I think it’s a good way to teach people about it, there are still many that have no idea what RSS means…

Thanks for the video! It added some humor to a boring topic (for some).

Wow! Thank you for sharing this. As I try to explain what i do to friends about this whole “making money online” thing, I get happy about my RSS subscribers…. but they have no freaking clue what that is… so, I will help them.

No problem, guys. I’ve already shown this to a friend of mine who asked me about what RSS is all about.

By the way, the video is also great even for techie people :D

Hey, this is really good video, as almost all my friends are non techie. I should consider to forward this video to them, so that they will subscript to my feed. Hahaha…

@Dicky: If you forward them this URL, then I guess they’ll subscribe to my feed instead, muahaha :D
