OK – now to show my true colours… I work with the web – I admit it, I am a bit of a
nerd… However – there are a few things that I would like to tell you about that might help you keep up to date with the site (& lots of others for that matter) with out even visiting the site! No magic is involved…. RSS (Really Simple Syndication) is the secret – sounds complicates, well actually it isn’t. With the help of Google Reader (there are others) you can read all the latest artcles from many of your favourite websites from one location. First you create a google reader account, then subscribe (add) the following “feeds”.
Our latest news
http://evlg.wordpress.com/feed/
Photos
http://picasaweb.google.com.au/data/feed/base/user/eastbournelifeguards?kind=album&alt=rss&hl=en_GB&access=public
Now you will have all the latest EVL articles & photos – & it will get updated automatically… if you want to take it a step further you can make google your homepage and personalise it, including adding google reader.
Well that’s enough about that there are plenty of google products, all are prety usful – next time I make sure it about lifesaving…
