RSS readers or Emails?

October 1, 2008 · Filed Under Internet

As you well know that you can sign up to RSS feeds and be informed with the latest posts from your favourite sites or blogs.

As you can see, with my blog, you can sign up using normal RSS feeds or you can Sign up to my latest posts via emails.

So whats the difference?

With normal RSS feeds, you will need a RSS reader.

Such AS:

You will have to download and install all these applications. The good thing about this: the Reader gets updated as soon as the new info is posted. with these readers, you can have it on your desktop, sothat you can always see it. That way, you will be one of the first people to read about whatever was posted.

I personally prefer getting updated with emails.

when it comes via emails, I get emailed once a day, early in the morning with the latest posts for the previous day. That way, I can sit down and take my time reading it. If I have time at lunch time, I will sit and go through all of them.

My one friend preffers the RSS readers. He uses Google Desktop. He likes it because he can see the new posts real time.
So its all really up to the person. If you like The RSS readers, then go for it. If you like the Emails, use them.

I reccomend you test out both of them and see what works for you.
