Wow! The more I learn about technology the more I realize that I don't know nearly as much as I thought I did. I subscribed to the following links in Google Reader:
http://www.classroom20.com Because our school is getting smartboards this year and I would like to see if I will be able to use one.
http://www.crossfit.com Because I follow this site on a daily basis. I use it to find workouts that I can incorporate into my classes.
http://www.crossfitapex.com This is a blog by two PE teachers who have a crossfit gym.
http://sports.espn.go.com I am a sports fan and I like to get headlines without having to go to each site.
http://mlb.mlb.com/news/article.jsp?ymd=20090713&content_id=5861448&vkey=news_min&fext=.jsp&c_id=min&partnerId=rss_min Twins fan. Enough said.
I think I could use Google Reader to cut down the time I spend searching my favorite sites by having the headlines all on one site. It will help my professional development from the standpoint of being able to track what is happening in whatever field I get interested in exploring without having to search multiple sites on a daily basis.
I think I like the layout of Bloglines better, but one advantage to google reader is that it automatically imports blogs that you follow on blogger that don't have a RSS or bloglines link.
If I am not careful though I can see myself following too many sites, thus spending more time filtering through my information.
