Subscribing to blogs: Email v. RSS
It's 2007, and the easiest way to subscribe to my blog is still through good, old-fashioned e-mail.
Enter your email address in the space provided in the right-hand margin of this blog. Then, whenever I post a new entry, you will receive it in your email. You will get tips, tricks, templates, backgrounds, and more! And of course, you can unsub at any time.
Your other option: Subscribe with RSS. Why? RSS makes it easy &
anonymous to subscribe to this site. With RSS, you can keep up-to-date with presentation tips, tricks, ideas, and downloads...without giving up any of your personal information (like email address or name)...at all. All you have to do is click here:
http://feeds.feedburner.com/Maniactive and click "subscribe to this feed".
Talk about low risk! You have nothing to lose! But still...
Surveys show that only about 10 percent of all web users subscribe to blogs and feeds through the safer, easier, and faster RSS.
So honestly: if you are one of the 9 our of 10 internet users that are not using RSS, make it your 2007 New Year's resolution to subscribe with RSS this year. Why?
Safer, faster, easier, smarter...and free. What's not to like about RSS?
