What is RSS?
The internet is a big and scary place. Everywhere you turn there's something new and interesting to catch your attention.
But with so much information out there, how do you keep track of the good stuff?
That's easy. You use RSS.
You've probably seen those orange widget icons on a lot of websites. That's the RSS symbol.
RSS stands for Really Simple Syndication, which sums it up perfectly. It means that you can track when your favourite sites and blogs have been updated, and see all the new stuff in one place. Useful.
And very easy to set up.
So how do I use it?
You need to get yourself a news reader. No, not Trevor McDonald. An RSS news reader is a handy bit of software that checks RSS feeds and lets you read any new articles that have been added to them.
There are lots of different types. Some have to be accessed using a browser while some are downloadable applications. If you choose a browser-based news reader you can read your RSS feed from any computer, but downloadable applications are just for your main PC.
Once you've decided which news reader to use, the next step is to choose the content that will come up in your feed. You do this by subscribing to the RSS feeds of your favourite websites and blogs.
Here's where that little orange icon comes into play. Find it on the site you want to add and click on it. Then you have various ways of adding it to your feed, like dragging the URL into your news reader or cutting and pasting the web address.
When that's done, all your feeds will appear in one place. It really is as easy as that.
