It seems like only yesterday that RSS was the only tool to use to avoid manually inspecting websites for new content, but today everywhere I go I find Twitter and Face Book, and RSS is often not available. I'm trying to decide what should I do? Seems daunting to use Twitter, Face Book, and RSS?
I can subscribe to an RSS feeds for New York Times reporters and read their publications either online or offline using IE or Outlook. I also found I can subscribe to an RSS feed for the SideDoorJazz club, a local hangout. But I could not find RSS feeds for many high profile MDs I'm interested in. What is the easy way to find out about new publications made by people like the CEO New York Presbyterian Hospital, or the president of Orthopedic Surgeons, Inc. Erie, PA?
