Not only will this save you time and effort, but it will also make your social network accounts a hotspot for the latest news. Hootsuite has a ton of features people don’t use very much, and that’s too bad because it really is one of my favorite multi-channel social media management tools. How To Add RSS feed to Hootsuite 1.
