for everyone
[Cross post from blog.aerialsoul.com: If you are reading the posts via Multiply then you don't need an RSS reader because Multiply handles notifications!! And does it in a very nice way!]


Over the past several months Ava and I have been posting to our blogs on a frequent but somewhat random basis. Several friends and family have mentioned that they try to go to our sites to look for new posts. This is where RSS (Really Simple Syndication) feeds make things easier!


Ava just recently started using Bloglines for blog reading and has completely embraced it. I've been using G Reader for about a year and it's always open in my browser. If you use Yahoo! Mail, you can get RSS feeds within Yahoo! Mail - here is a Tutorial. But we also know that many people haven't warmed up to using RSS or Blog Readers.


If you aren't ready to use a Blog Reader, there is good news. Here are two services that deliver RSS feeds to your email. Just enter the feed url for our blogs and your email address and when new posts are made to our blogs, you will receive an email.

here's a pretty good RSS explanation video below which was posted here on Multiply a couple weeks ago:

Actually that's the kind of thing Multiply was built for - to notify you when friends and family share something new. I use Bloglines for stories from various sites, but for people I know, I make sure they're posting their stuff on Multiply. :-)

marc - you are right! Unfortunately I can't play dictator and force everyone to Multiply (yet that is). So for now I'm using a soft approach of suggestion :-)
