What is RSS? RSS (Really Simple Syndication) is a format for syndicating news. Your RSS reader collects content in the background at user configurable intervals and alerts you when new or updated content has arrived. You can click the headline to see a short description or open the included link to view the full web page. How do you use the RSS button? 1. Right click the orange RSS button. 2. Choose "Copy Shortcut". 3. Paste the url of the feed into your RSS Reader's "Add Feed" option. 4. Enjoy your instant updates! What happens if you click the RSS orange button? Depending on your browser type and the file format of the feed, you may see xml code, or even a blank page. This does not mean the feed is broken, but is in fact a live feed. You can copy the url from the browser and paste it into your RSS Reader. Where do you get an RSS Reader? Try these free ones.
