RSS and Star Wars

For the RSS feeds, I selected the OCLS Kids & Teens feed as the one from OCLS. I also selected "Quotes of the Day," WOTmania-a Wheel of Time RSS feed, the official LOST Podcast, and (big shocker...) the official Star Wars RSS feed. I don't know that I'll actually have time to look at or keep up with any of them, which is why I haven't subscribed to any feeds on my own time. I barely take the time to read my personal email.

On the Grokker searching I searched for...you guessed it, Star Wars. :) It was pretty cool how the links were grouped under topics, which would usually make it easier. However, after looking in a couple of these categories, I could not find the official Star Wars website (www.starwars.com) in any of the categories, which I think should be one of the first results to come up. Most of the results seemed to be links to something in wikipedia, which I don't necessarily like as a source for finding factual information. The Map View feature would not work for me, so I guess I'll have to try it again later.

Learn 2.0 is working with my learning style. I completed my Master's Degree program completely online through USF, so I am used to learning things in this style. I am a "read it and try it" learner mostly, although in the job I like to see a demonstration of most things in order to learn them.
