Sometimes things are so obvious to me, that I forget that there are people around that might not know about it: in this case I am talking about the power of website feeds. This is how I keep my Project Management knowledge on the edge, this is the way how I educate myself on my profession… And the best part of it… It’s all free.

More and more websites about Project Management are publishing their content in a so-called RSS feed. This is just a small xml stream that allows an application to get the articles and display them to a reader. The best part of this is that a reader can handle thousands of website feeds, so you only have to look at your reader and you will have the latest information available. No more surfing around!

Last summer I really changed the speed of learning on Project Management. I started using Google Reader to read almost a hundred blogs and other websites. Every morning I log into the free reader and I can read all the articles about Project Management, just like a newspaper. Heck, better than my newspaper!

For me it was an eye opener…!
