#FeedReaderFriday: A Suggestion for Changing our Social Media Patterns | Chris Aldrich<\/a><\/p>\n Just after I discover RSS in the \u201cflowering\u201d of theScotEduBlogs community I got interested in aggregating RSS and creating specialised readers. Back in around 2006 I was blogging some ideas which lead to Robert Jones & Pete Liddle creating the first iteration of the ScotEduBlogs aggregation<\/a>. Later I moved the site to WordPress using the FeedWordPress plug-in. I\u2019d seen this in use on the marvellous DS106<\/a> site which aggregates blogs of students and open participants of the many iterations of the notorious Digital Storytelling course. The flow on DS106<\/a> has pulled in 91749 (at time of writing) posts since 2010.<\/p>\n ScotEduBlogs is at a bit of a low at the moment, there are not so many folk blogging about education in Scotland. I still love the idea of \u2018specialist\u2019 or community aggregations or feed readers. Of course the site has an RSS feed that can be subscribed to. Dave Winer\u2019s FeedLand<\/a>, which I noted in a previous #FeedReaderFriday<\/a>, can also create \u2018News Products\u2019 with similar results.<\/p>\n I like to follow some human aggregators, even better if they add their own opinions. One of my favourites in Arron Davis his Read Write Collect<\/a> blog is an IndieWeb style collector of replies, bookmarks and other responses. RSS<\/a>.<\/p>\n Some of Tom Woodward\u2019s Bionic Teaching \u2013 utan blixt<\/a> consists of his harvest of links with brief comment. This might be auto posted, perhaps from pinboard? He also posts about higher ed use of technology and, of particular interest to me, his work with WordPress.
