Our RSS feed at home is our link to news. Because we only subscribe to Sunday's New York Times, it is timely and cost-efficient to receive our news 'on our virtual' doorstep...even thousands of miles away from where it is published.
In library land, I'd recommend every staff member having an RSS feed. Sites could differ based on job descriptions and tasks, and the amount of relevant information received would seemingly increase. Most importantly, in this time-crunched work force, useless navigation, searching, and browsing time would be deleted. In my mind, time management is one of the most important aspects of a functioning work space and library. With more (quality) time, we can spend more time on patrons and their needs, interacting and communicating with staff, being aware of the space around us and its needs, etc. etc. etc.
Time is one of our most valuable assets, and worth being spent well.

About Me
..."It doesn't happen all at once," said the Skin Horse. "You become. It takes a long time. That's why it doesn't often happen to people who break easily, or have sharp edges, or who have to be carefully kept..."
