I have been messing around and seeing how to get the information easier than clicking and looking through the different sites and found out something pretty cool. While I understand how they work, but not why they work, RSS Feeds are embedded in most webpages. Firefox users have something really cool that will allow them to have Live Bookmarks to keep those feeds updated. So if you goto Volquest, for instance, and if you are on the front page of the site then go up to Tools in Firefox and click Page Info. When the window comes up after you click that, goto to the Feeds button. In there you will see many different feeds that are from Volquest. If you click on the link under the Recruiting feed, it will add a Live Bookmark. You can name it anything you would like, but instead of going to Volquest homepage you can get the updates by simply going up to the Bookmarks up at the top of Firefox and going down to what you specified. You can refresh it yourself as well to see if anything has been added. I thought it was pretty cool and would share. You can do the same for Scout.

If you are a mac user and use safari this RSS icon is at the end of the address bar and you can do the same thing

I was about to make some smartass remark about how everyone knows about RSS feeds, but apparently they don't. Very cool way to keep up with any blogs you read on a daily basis too.
