A Really Simple Site

Picture Source

 Hello everyone! Those who want to read daily news online or follow some web pages or blogs, generally waste their time in vain: finding web pages, going these pages, reading news, looking for other recent information and so on. While technology enables us access information easily, catching up the latest news may not be so easy for those who follow a lot of blogs. Then, is there a solution for this issue? How can we keep informed of the recent news easily?
  Fortunately, technology lend us a hand again, at this point. I want to introduce you to RSS (Really Simple Syndication or Rich Site Summary). When you subscribe blogs or webpages, RSS presents updated information, which prevent you from controlling blogs one by one and thereby, saving your time. At the same time, you do not need to share your e-mail address for using this technology. It means you can get rid of unnecessary e-mails.
  When it comes to reaching it, hundreds of RSS readers are available. I use a free software, RSS Feedreader; however, you can also use any online reader. The process of downloading something may seem troublesome, yet I guarantee it is really easy to download and use. There is even no need to register to Feedreader. Once you have finished the setup, you click to "new feed", write websites' names and add feeds. By clicking to "new folder" option, you can gather blogs in the same folder. As you can see below, it is also possible that you edit the update period however you want.

  I added the screenshot of the blogs I follow below and I want to recommend you my favourite blog.

  In Özge Karaoğlu's Blog you can find really inspiring and useful sources for converting your lessons to innovative ones by means of technology. She is an English teacher and educational consultant. Her blog is quite encouraging especially for teachers who avoid using technology in their lessons. This blog involves lesson plans, applications and digital games which will enhance your students' interest to writing, listening or reading comprehension activities in an entertaining way. She shares posts frequently, I think it is a plus for keeping in touch with new activities. I have also realized that she shares each week's blog posts briefly in case you have missed any. But, let me assure you, when you follow her blog, it is not possible that you have missed any post not just because of RSS but because of benefits of the blog. Whenever I glance at her blog, I find myself lost in various beneficial activities. All in all, I strongly recommend this blog to ELT teachers. Please, look at her blog and I'll be glad if you share your favorite blogs with me. See you in my next posts!
