RSS Feeds

About RSS Feeds

RSS stands for Really Simple Syndication. It's an easy way for you to keep up with news and information that's important to you and helps you avoid the conventional methods of browsing or searching for information on websites. Now the content you want can be delivered directly to you without cluttering your inbox with e-mail messages. This content is called a "feed."

RSS is written in the Internet coding language known as XML (eXtensible Markup Language), which is why you see RSS buttons commonly labeled with this icon: XML


What is an RSS Reader?

An RSS reader is a small software program that collects and displays RSS feeds. It allows you to scan headlines from several news sources in a central location.


Where can I get an RSS Reader?

Some browsers, such as the current versions of Internet Explorer, Firefox, and Safari have built-in RSS readers. If you're using a browser that doesn't currently support RSS, there are a variety of RSS readers available on the web; some are free to download and others are available for purchase.
