More About Finding RSS

In addition to setting up an RSS account, I investigated some of the ways to locate feeds by interest, topic, etc. I found Sindic8 to be confusing; not good for a beginner and not user-friendly although for an old hand at RSS it is probably perfectly fine. Topix.net looks like it would be useful for specific news searches or if you need current news on a topic. My search for news on the Arizona Hispanic vote, on Super Tuesday turned up over 3,800 news stories, and I have no idea how one would manage a feed like that. It is still easiest for me to copy feeds directly from sources of interest that I am currently using. I do find Technorati helpful when looking for like-minded blogs on a variety of interests.
