From Web 1 … to Web 2.0 Database, not separate documents Automation

Complement your pull-searches, by harnessing the Internet’s pushing power.

Push: monitor hot topics 2

Heh heh!

TABS Push: Multiple home pages 3

You don’t have to have to load one page, read it, exit, repeat another. Etc etc. Or even open several NEW windows TABS = many on the same page. And SOP get selected ones loading as your default home page settings. HOW? Browser: tools,options.

RSS feeds: any update at your favourite site comes to you Push: get fed! 4

3 ways to sign up to RSS feeds: i.Via your web browser (eg. Explorer, Firefox) – diverse display ii.Via your iii.Via a dedicated RSS reader (eg. Google reader) (shows in - style folders) 4i

(i) Via Browser Explorer click the RSS icon; then click the yellow star on your toolbar; save. Firefox click the RSS icon; click Cntrl D to save; choose bookmarks tool bar

FIREFOX In my view, best for RSS: FIREFOX IT

(ii) via Outlook EITHER: RSS Feeds button in your Mail Folders. Right-click there. OR: Paste address of feed at

(iii) Via a “reader” Filter for a keyword A one-stop home page?

What when an old site doesn’t do RSS? CONVERT IT!

MERGER Plumb for a single funnel Push yahoo 4

Aggregate feeds AND filter them!

Headlines from 41 Francophone Africa news sources! French news translated

From Web 1 … to Web 2.0 Now: communities of interest Surfacing, not searching Old way: solo search… or, a pal recommends URL 5

Here’s how… So: aggregate! eg. tags RSS

feed/posts/tag/wjec
