I’ve got another little update for two of my blogs: my Jaime David Gaming Blog and my Jaime David Science Blog now both have their own FeedBurner feeds.
I’ve been working on ways to make my different blogs easier to follow, and RSS is one of those things that makes a lot of sense to me. Instead of having to constantly check a website to see whether something new has been posted, an RSS feed gives readers another way to keep up with new content.
And now, my gaming and science blogs each have their own dedicated feeds.
Jaime David Gaming
First up is the Jaime David Gaming Blog.
Gaming has always been one of those areas where there is a lot to talk about beyond simply playing a game. There are games themselves, the stories they tell, the technology behind them, game development, gaming culture, nostalgia, and all of the random thoughts that can come from spending time with a particular game.
So if you want to follow what I'm writing about on the gaming side of things, you can subscribe to the FeedBurner feed here:

That's the dedicated RSS feed for the gaming blog.
Jaime David Science
And then there's the Jaime David Science Blog.
Science is another huge area that I've always been interested in, and having a dedicated place to write about scientific topics gives me the opportunity to explore that interest in a different way.
Science is fascinating because there's always something else to learn. Biology, technology, data, medicine, research, discoveries, the natural world, and all of the strange and wonderful things that humans have figured out about the universe can provide endless things to write about.
The science blog now has its own FeedBurner feed as well:

So if science is more your thing, that's the feed you'll want.
Two More Ways to Follow Along
I like having separate feeds for these blogs because the subjects are so different.
Someone who primarily wants to read about gaming might not necessarily want every science post showing up in their RSS reader. Likewise, someone following the science blog might not care about a post I write about a video game.
Having separate feeds means you can choose what you actually want to follow.
That's one of the things I like about RSS in general. It puts some of the control back into the hands of the reader.
You don't have to depend entirely on an algorithm deciding whether you're going to see something. You can subscribe to the sources you care about and let your RSS reader keep track of new posts for you.
And that's something I want to encourage across my different projects.
I've been building several different corners of the Jaime David universe, and each one has its own subject matter and personality. My music blog is about my journey making music. My gaming blog is about gaming. My science blog is about science.
They're different blogs, but they're all ultimately part of the same larger creative project.
I'm writing because I have things I want to explore, discuss, question, explain, and share.
And now there are even more ways for people to follow those writings.

And if you're interested in both?
Well, subscribe to both.
I'm going to keep writing, experimenting, learning, and putting things out there.
The goal isn't simply to have these blogs sitting around on the internet.
I want people to actually find them.
I want people to read them.
I want people to discover something interesting.
And maybe, just maybe, I want somebody to stumble across one of these blogs and think, "Huh. I never thought about it that way before."
That's ultimately why I write.
So now my gaming and science blogs have another way to reach people.
Two more blogs. Two more RSS feeds. And plenty more things to write about.
