RSS to the Rescue

Since I was a teenager I have not liked being told what to do. The fact that it was sensible advice never stopped me from ignoring it and blundering on in my own cloud. Well, I felt a simpatico sensation of such an attitude when I first began using RSS (really simple syndication).It felt like my reading was being directed by my web reader. I am well and truly over that and will like to say; RSS is great (if not essential)!
