Share RSS Awareness Day

I want to say one thing before I start this post. The new Maxis commercial you see on the television; animated drawn on paper type objects, concept was from Common Craft. I wanted to say this out loud so everyone (hopefully) won’t be misled to believe it is an original concept. So back to RSS Awareness day…it actually falls on May 1, coincidentally is Labors Day.

This online started campaign is about informing the many other Internet users about RSS and how they can benefit from using it in their daily web activities. Before I started using an RSS reader, I always bookmarked blogs I read daily. Today, I still do bookmark blogs but I subscribe to my favorite blogs RSS feed for easier tracking of new posts. Not to mention, I get a sneak peek of each post title without having to load the blog.

So share the love of RSS readers and let more Malaysia Internet users know about RSS awareness day. And here’s a video by Common Craft.

There’s a more polished RSS in plain english version with clearer audio and video quality over on their blog. If you’d like to view other stuff they’ve done, you could view them on their Blip TV channel.
