Find Content in Yahoo

I've used "Find Content" feature in Yahoo to search for "chinese literature" and added the news feed. It is called "Yahoo! News Search Results for chinese literature".

There is also a feature in Yahoo to email the news feed to anyone. But the term it uses is kind of puzzling. It calls it "Email a Module". What does the term "module" mean here?

Yahoo's RSS feeder

I've used Firefox to add those RSS feeds to my Yahoo account.

The following is a description of UMD Library Learning 2.0 RSS feed added:

UMD Library Learning 2.0

* #7 Finding Feeds - 1 minutes
* #6 Make life "really simple" with RSS & a newsreader - 1 minutes
* #5 Learn about Instant Messaging - 1 minutes
* #4 Explore Facebook and MySpace - 1 minutes
* #3 Grab yourself a blog in 3 steps - 1 minutes

Instant Messanging

I've created a Jabber account, and then created a chat room called "UMD Library Learning 2.0". However, I have problems to invite people to join the chat room.

Got a face and a book :)

I've created a combination of face and book, that is, facebook account. Tried to find my alma mate but failed. So I created a group for Hangzhou University alumni. I set the group as "restricted" so that only members can post.
