What is RSS?
RSS is an easy way to review updates from your favorite Web sites without visiting each one. With an RSS reader, you subscribe to a feed and scan the headlines. When you find something that interests you, click on the link to read the complete article.
How do I get RSS feeds?
First, get an RSS reader. Then follow your RSS reader's instructions for adding a feed to your list. There are many RSS readers available, some of which are free. There are Web-based readers as well as those that you download and install on your computer. Examples of free RSS readers:
- Web - Bloglines
- Windows - FeedReader
- Mac - NetNewsWire
Many modern browsers also have RSS capabilities built in. The latest versions of Firefox, Safari, and Internet Explorer all have this feature.
