Found via Grant Laird Jr. Blog <- Noesis <- Jared's Rambling Thoughts. Credit goes to Grant who found this video with subtitled first. Thought I MUST post this in my blog, to remind EVERYONE including my Deaf folks what RSS is all about.
If you or I have ever had trouble explaining why someone should get into RSS, or even if you’ve been on the fence about trying the technology, the folks at CommonCraft have released a great resource of video that explains RSS In Plain English; and DotNet have added the subtitled version on this video.
I find this three and half minutes video very informative with subtitled (yay!), to have web idiots, newbies and grandparents to understand. Looking for my big, bold RSS orange icon on right sidebar in my blog to subscribe.
Bloglines is in my blood, and terribly addictive, I couldn't live without this to subscribe from numerous of blog readers, including DeafRead, customize feed through Alexa's Top 20 web traffic rankings including Flickr, CNN and eBay (!).
I am kinda disappointed that few of my folks (such as non-web savvy) still don't get it [RSS], they still prefer to visit websites on their own time frequently, use email subscription or distribution lists in the old fashioned way.

I have one stupid question. I am under the impression that I would get any new postings, new blogs, and fresh comments directly from any selected blog to my email address?? Is that right?? Plus I cannot access the new 'Sub' video clips. What happened to old video formats, which suit me just fine...
