Here's another time saving tip - sign up for Twitter feed and get it to update your Twitter account for you everytime you update your blog.
You can also add other people's blogs to it so that your Twiier account will Tweet about them when ever they are updated.
Once you've set up an account it will ask you for the RSS Feed URL ......you can find this on the blog you want to link usually under a buttom that says subscribe to posts (ATOM) if you click on this it will take you to a new page and the address in the address bar is what you are looking for.
It should read feed://nameofblog etc you just need to copy and paste this into the RSL feed URL box and then click on add feed.
Hope this is helpful
