What is the "My Stuff" page?
The "My Stuff" section allows you to organize your information. You tell the system which things your want to monitor, and when you go to this page, the system will go to all the forums, blogs, and other web sites you have added to your "My Stuff" page. The "My Stuff" page acts as a news aggregator.
How it works
Some web sites publish information in a special format that lets other web sites automatically retrieve that information. In the Community, all of our blogs and forums publish this ability. Also, the NIC web site (http://nicic.org) publishes information about its training programs and new library items. Look for icons that are orange or have the letters "RSS" (Real Simple Syndication) on them. You will copy the address (URL) that these icons link to, into your "My Stuff" page. The video will show you how to do this.
