RSS makes staying up-to-date easy

It’s a crazy, busy world out there. Who has the time to read newspapers, catch up with TV news or regularly visit their favourite news sites, blogs and listings pages? RSS is an ultra-simple way for you to get the kind of news you want delivered to you instead of forcing you to go out searching.

What exactly is RSS?

The idea behind RSS is that you subscribe to customizable streams or feeds of news and information which are sent to your reader or possibly your inbox. Instead of you going out to a pile of websites to find the news, “Really Simple Syndication” means the sources you trust can send you information whenever there’s something new to report. And it’s not limited to news – you can get RSS feeds for events listings, blogs, quotes of the day, job listings, sports scores… whatever tickles your information fancy. If you see this orange RSS symbol on a website, you can subscribe to its RSS feed. Sometimes It’ll just say RSS and sometimes it’ll just say subscribe, but whatever it says it means the same thing; the site will send the new articles to your reader every time new content is published.
