Courtney Johnston of the National Library has a post about how to (productively) spend time on the web. Here’s what she suggests if you have 5 minutes:

Got a spare 5 minutes a day?

My top tip would be to set up some RSS feeds of Technorati tags and Google Blog Alerts, using the name of your institution / website / blog / exhibition / service / product as the keyword. Then every day, try to respond to or act on something you see being said online (remembering that not everyone wants to hear from you).

[Via LibraryTechNZ: Time is on my side: What could you do on the web in 30 minutes per week?.]

Find out more about RSS feeds by viewing Keeping up with the Joneses — Miraz’s workshop notes from the Engage your Community conference, or at What’s this about RSS?.
