Another consideration for use of RSS is whether 'corporate' IT folks will
allow one to install an RSS reader on computer. We can't here -- no
'unauthorized' software is allowed, and the PTB don't see a need for RSS.
Email is ok, though. 

I have an RSS reader at home, and I still prefer email

Frankly, I consider myself a power user and I still prefer to get stuff sent
to my e-mail.  If there was a decent aggregator for a decent price
for Outlook, I would use it.   I am now using BlogLines as my aggregator
and like it but would prefer not having to open another program.  Call me
lazy or part of the unwashed masses but I like e-mail.
