I’m an avid fan of RSS feeds - they just make it so easy to keep up-to-date with what’s going on with our bands and the music industry in general. If you’re blog doesn’t have an RSS feed - you’re missing out on a convenient way to keep your fans informed.

As I read so many feeds, I frequently come across great posts I’d like to share. That’s always been a case of posting a blog about a post, or emailing specific people who I think might be interested.

Well, not anymore. I’ve just discovered the link blog feature of Google Reader’s Shared Items (thanks to Robert Scoble).

From now on, anything I think is relevant and/or intersting to independent music will be posted to the Musoswire Link Blog via Google Reader. I’ve also created an RSS feed, so you can subscribe and receive all the posts to the link blog automatically.

Bruce Warila over at Unsprung Artists has just posted a great article introducing the benefits of RSS specifically for musicians and bands.

RSS (Really Simple Syndication) is a simple way for websites to “push” information to readers. Rather than hoping or expecting fans to visit your website, you can instantly deliver information to all your subscribers in a non-intrusive manner.
