A Feed of Feeds or LIVE Blogroll?
I'm almost there! I have an English teacher who is interested in blogging with her English Composition students. FINALLY!
We have decided to use EduBlogs for their price and feature set. Here's where I'm not sure where to go.
The teacher intends to set up a class blog. She then intends to set up student blogs. Let's just say 100 students or so. Her question is, how do I monitor the student blogs? Must I visit 100 sites per day? No, of course not. We'll simply subscribe in our feed reader, right??
Well now I have 100 feeds to monitor. Here's my question. I would like to set up a feed of feeds for those 100 student blogs. I know this can be done. I've just never done it.
Better yet, I would like a dynamic blogroll with live feeds to each student blog. The "live" blogroll would be displayed in the class blog sidebar!! That's the mission, should you choose to accept it.
Now I know that YOU know a good solution. Please share.
Fingers are crossed that I'm just missing this feature.

Kurt...
I have several teachers who have abandoned Edublogs in favor of 21 classes for that very reason. The front "portal" is much friendlier and all goes there. Something I could not figure out how to make happen in edublogs either. I know that is not the answer you wanted to hear, but although we have a few still hanging in with edublogs...they are mostly the ones who do not have separate student blogs. Let me know if you come up with a solution
Dear Kurt Paccio,
