I am a subscriber to all of the tools discussed in the chapter and I've used the tools for personal use. I would like to start incorporating them into some classroom use with my students though. I love that this chapter shows how RSS feeds and social bookmarking sites can be linked together. Diigo and Delicous make it easy to share bookmarks to an RSS feed reader.
I've also been thinking about creating a page on our school wesite that links to a public RSS feeder. This would save me time from posting links to sites to the page since I could just bookmark through my Delicious or Diigo account to a group that feeds into our school public feed reader. I'm planning to set this up in the near future. It seems like a wonderful way to share resources with parents, teachers, or students.

I think many of the ideas that were mentioned in this chapter regarding RSS feeds are tremendous. The examples were great in tying all of the technologies together. In this instance using social bookmarking would help greatly in creating a folksonomy and RSS would help to keep it individualized for the group. Your idea in using an RSS feed would definitely be a time saver and help keep everything simplistic to use.

Erik, it appears you are finding some great tools to use immediately with your school. Thats' great! I am curious, you don't mention Twitter at all. Do you find Twitter to be a good resource, professionally or personally? I have struggled to gain traction in using it and wonder if you have some tips.
