Welcome to Tucson!

Welcome to Tucson for the Pacific Southwest District's 2010 Rose convention, named "Rose Roundup at the Old Pueblo!"

This web journal will be the place to come when you want to check for updates regarding the conference. You can either visit the traditional way by bookmarking the URL of this blog and visiting periodically, or you can subscribe and have it delivered to you if you have an RSS feed reader or something like an iGoogle start page.

What is RSS? It is a free and easy way to get news on the web delivered to you, directly to your monitor. So instead of having to visit 14 different places to get your weather, sports, favorite photos, latest gossip, or latest political debates, you just go to one screen and see the news all collected into a single window.

Some people like to use an RSS feed reader like Google Reader, or Bloglines, and others like to combine their feeds with a customized start page like iGoogle, or My Yahoo.

The video below has a short, fun explanation of how RSS readers work.
