And also for entering your blog's address and your blog FEED address. I didn't even know what it was :-) I don't know if it's still of any use to provide blog feed addresses to sites such as Sphinn???? Fiona Hi Corey,

Err, I mean reach, because I certainly wouldn't suggest that anything be done strictly for the purposes of enhancing Google rankings. :) And unfortunately, even though links on http://m.twitter.com/ have the nofollow tag removed, they've disallowed Google from crawling that subdomain. So in that sense, RSS has one benefit, at least! Well, RSS is still good for creating some easy backlinks.

On Twitter, I could monitor so much more -- all the blog posts of the people I follow, plus all the gems they found on other people's blogs. I used to call it RSS on steroids. I have, of course, discovered that Twitter is so much more: a gathering of clans, the water cooler of the Internet, a huge networking meeting, not to mention a great way to show the entire world that I make spelling mistakes. But "RSS on steroids" is still the best way I can describe Twitter. I first joined Twitter for exactly this reason.
