Do you Twitter? Do you RSS? What do you do?

In today’s fast pace information world, you have more than one option to follow the news and info that websites provide. You already know you can just visit the sites, many of you already use RSS, and some use email subscriptions too. Did you know that there are even more ways that we, the website admins, can get content out to you? One of those new methods that I have ignored for so long is Twitter.
Julie Delong, Microsoft MVP and a member of our moderation team, set up a Twitter feed not too long ago. I wasn’t too sold on the whole Twitter thing, but lately, I have been giving it a serious look. I have been using it a lot lately on the personal side. (my link) I have also been looking at how the content is present in Twitter and I really like what Julie has set up. When a post is made here, it sends a message to Twitter and it is published on the Mobilitysite Twitter feed. You can subscribe to it and read it online, in your Twitter application on your device, or even have the alerts text messaged to you. (Mobilitysite’s Twitter Feed)
Another method we use here is using our Odiogo feed. This is really cool if you have a high speed connection and want to listen to our news stories on the way to work, etc.
Here are some ways to get Mobilitysite’s content:
- Standard RSS (Try our Branded Viigo Windows Mobile Reader)
- Twitter Feed
- Email Blast (visit Mobilitysite and look in the right column for a blog to enter address)
- Odiogo feed
What RSS Reader do you use?
I use Google Reader on my desktop and laptop and Viigo on my mobile devices.
