Including site feeds into my blog...

I regretfully say that the worksheet does not provide any instructions at all with regards to how to include site feeds into my blog. Hence there is nothing I can do, because I do not wish to incorrectly include site feeds which may bring trouble.

This is one of my practical 4 & 5 research site screenshot

What benefits do I get when using different search facilities to search for resources related to my topic?

I was really amazed at how the meta-search engine actually works. It was able to search and obtain results from the existing major search engines and therefore saves a lot of time for people who often need to search several search engines like google, yahoo, MSN etc. individually.

Based on a little search that i conducted via a wonderful site known as Search Engines Showdown (Meta Search Engines) http://www.searchengineshowdown.com/multi/,
different meta search engines crawl different search engines to yield different sets of results. For example, the meta-search engine "Dogpile" http://www.dogpile.com/ mentioned on Syahir's blog, crawls conventional search engines like these: Ask, Google, MSN, Yahoo!, Teoma, Open Directory. While Kartoo http://kartoo.com/, also a meta-search engine, crawls these search engines: AlltheWeb, AltaVista, EntireWeb, Exalead, Hotbot, Looksmart, Lycos, MSN, Open Directory, Teoma, ToileQuebec, Voila, Wisenut, Yahoo. Therefore i suggest that, before conducting a search on a meta search engine, define which search engines you'd prefer to search on before you hit the 'enter' key.

I have personally experienced site feeds in other people's blogs. I feel that site feeds are good as it constantly updates your blog with the latest news of other websites. These make users feel that your blog is relevant and up to date, and provide users with convenience when linking to other websites or refering to the updates of other websites.
