Did I Hear Your RSS SOS? Grab this How-To Guide for Help.

If you haven’t made a commitment to learning how to use an RSS feed, do it now. Right now.
If what I’m hearing on the streets is anything to go by, there are a lot of people out there who don’t know what an RSS feed is, let alone how efficient it can make your web browsing, information gathering and content management. (Not to mention the power it can put behind your networking efforts!)
Fear not! I’m here to answer your RSS SOS.
Without further ado, I’ve put together this little RSS “How To” and “Why Should I?” Guide under a Creative Commons‘ BY-NC-ND license which enables you to download, share and redistribute this work (unaltered) at your discretion.
Click here or on the image above to download the full PDF presentation, or view it online at SlideShare.
Oh, and if this tutorial doesn’t get the job done, by all means, walk right out of your home or office immediately and find someone who can take a few minutes to sit down and show you how valuable a tool this can be.
Final thoughts? Enjoy and befriend the feed. Trust me, it’ll be well worth your time.
If you have any questions, you can always find me on twitter @usegraymatter. (Which reminds me to add that if you are using twitter, believe me when I tell you that twittering without tweetdeck is like riding a bike with one eye closed and without the benefit of handlebars.)

Finally got around to checking out your tutorial, Renee. While the info is great, and I now have a better understanding of RSS feeds, my “Security Zone Policy” blocks me from being able to download from NewsGator.com.
And I have no idea which of the security settings is doing the blocking.
I’ll keep digging.
(I love the SlideShare option. Very slick!)
