I came across a neat way to mashup an application by accident. I was looking for a live news ticker for my PC and came across one from CNN. As I started using it and setting it up, I discovered that I could add RSS feeds to it. Since I read about 40 or 50 blogs, to keep up and find out if it worked, I entered the RSS feeds into the application and it worked.

Now, when one of the blogs I follow has an update, I get a pop-up alert. That makes it soooo much easier than checking all the blogs every day or every other day.

Watch the video below to see how to do it.
