Newsweek magazine’s RSS feed “Top News” is a great way to get information and opinions on today’s current events. The feed employs a variety of formats to present information. For instance, some of the pieces are editorials, some are polls, and others are news articles. I like the different formats because I can get both facts and opinions on a story in the same feed. Almost any topic in today’s news that I would want to know more about is covered in the “Top News” feed. I found stories about the presidential candidates, a widely covered topic, as well as current interest pieces about entertainment and social issues. The feed publishes several stories a day, so the information is always up-to-date. However, reading every piece from this feed would be impractical. Instead, I scan the headlines for eye-catching titles and read only those that interest me. Skimming through the headlines, I could look for news stories that related to me or looked interesting, so I would not have to read every single piece. With such a variety of subjects, I can always find something worth reading. I will keep “Top News” in my Reader as a way to keep in touch with the world and important events.
