Finding Feeds (Thing #12)

I did not have much luck finding feeds using Topix or Technorati (though it's nice to finally know what Technorati is--I keep hearing about it, but haven't ever cared enough to find out what it was). I tried library, libraries, and librarians, and found some blogs that looked interesting, but an equal number that didn't actually seem to have anything to do with library, libraries, or librarians. Maybe I haven't quite figured out how to use them? Or maybe it would work better if my searches were more targeted?

I also tried looking for Winona, MN, my hometown. Judging by the feeds, the biggest news out of Winona lately is that a woman is suing her petsitter for letting her potbellied pig get too fat while she was taking care of it. Sad.

Generally, I've had the best luck with blogs I read about or hear about from other people.
