Thing 11 - Finding Good Feeds

With my RSS reader on google already having 5 relevant subcriptions, I am on the hunt to learn more about seeking RSS feeds. Some recommended by 23 things were where I started. Hands down, Google Blog Search was the simplest to use as far as finding blogs by keyword, and entering into those blogs to use the option to follow them. However I found their blog choices by my keywords necessary to be lacking. So I moved on to Topix.net where I was easily able to find science links, and from there it easily walked me through saving new websites (and what I specifically wanted from them) into my Google Reader. The most difficult for me to use or understand was syndic8.com. It was an advanced RSS finder that would be more helpful when I have more experience of RSS feeders. I found a great science feed from Science News, and chose to only follow their articles in hopes it doesn't consume my Reader feed. When using Google Blog I had found a neat older blog from an astronaut which was fun to read, but I couldn't find a way to follow it. I have discovered that simply Googling "RSS feeds" gives lots of websites with information on understanding RSS feeds and how to use them. I plan to look into this more, as I understand the idea and the benefit of them, but am still a little confused on how to follow them via different websites.
