Creating a Feed Page
In order to subscribe to blogs you have to set up some sort of way to view updates in a convenient location. We'll do that by creating a gmail and iGoogle Account. You can take it one step further by signing up for Google Reader.

You're welcome to use NetVibes or PageFlakes too.

After you have set up your iGoogle Account, visit a few of these blogs and add them to your iGoogle homepage. By no means are these the only blogs to follow, they represent a small sampling so you can a feel for subscribing to them.

[|Edublogger] [|Cool Cat Teacher] Always Learning Lisette's Blog You'll be able to follow any blog you visit by subscribing to the RSS feed on a blog page.

Of course, reading other people's blogs is only half the fun. Creating your own blog contributes to the blogosphere.
