    3. Based on preliminary results of my survey, no regular subscriber of either the Bunker Family Association's Bunker-L or Roblee researchers Roblee-L e-mail lists on Rootsweb uses an RSS Reader. Most who replied said they weren't even sure what it is. For a quick review of RSS, visit the following site: http://www.infopackets.com/channels/en/windows/gazette/2006/20060119_how_to_ use_an_rss_reader.htm This article has lots of basic information. So, until I get enough interest to produce a separate web log, I will continue to provide BFA and Roblee information updates via my own weblog at www.greencity.org/blog. This is a personal blog, with links to categories for genealogy research. Both the main pages at the Bunker Family Association (www.bunkerfamilyassn.org) and the Roblee researchers' site (www.robleesonline.org) have links to the RSS feeds. And, just in case you might think that RSS is understandable only by young techies, I decided to learn about it at age 57 to help keep track of my many personal interests (computing, photography, genealogy, music) as well as my professional ones (human resources, local government, health benefits administration). No matter what your interests, you'll find web logs useful and--guess what--they are all spam free. Doug Detling
