Using web feeds (RSS)


Web feeds, also called RSS (Really Simple Syndication), allow you to subscribe to content on the Web. With a feed reader, you can subscribe to content on multiple Web sites. Then instead of visiting each Web site regularly to see what is new, you can go to your newsreader, scan the headlines and click on the ones that you want. It's an efficient way to check for new information about subjects that interest you.

The biggest benefit to you is that you can quickly monitor dozens of sites by scanning the headlines and summaries and choosing what you want to read.

How to subscribe to a Web feed
To subscribe to a web feed follow these steps:

 
  1. Download a free feed reader, such as Newsgator or Pluck. Or set up an account on a web-based feed reader such as Bloglines.

  2. Subscribe to a feed, such as a blog. Some sites offer one-button subscriptions so that you can just click on the symbol that represents your feed reader.

Your feed reader will have an option for subscribing to feeds. Your other choice is to click on the orange or blue RSS button on the page of the feed you want. Copy the online address (URL) for that page and paste it into your feed reader (You might see a page of code, which you can ignore).

Now, click on "subscribe." Your feed reader will then know where to look to get that Web feed's latest updates.
