What is RSS?
RSS stands for Really Simple Syndication, and provides a really easy way to keep up with all of your favorite websites, which eliminates the need to revisit each site to check for updates.
What do I Need to Get Started?
The only thing you will need to get started is an RSS Reader. The most popular RSS Reader is Google Reader (It’s the one I use). Once you’re acquainted with the RSS Reader you decided to use, it’s time to start subscribing to your favorite sites. You will usually be able to tell what sites offer an RSS feed by the site’s use of the RSS feed icon:
. If you want to subscribe to that site, all you will need to do is click on that site’s feed icon or enter the website address in your feed reader.
If you don’t have an RSS Reader, or just think they seem way to complicated, a lot of sites will allow you to subscribe to their feed via email, just as I do in the top right hand corner.
That’s it!
That’s all there is to it. If you are still having trouble, feel free to contact me and I’ll help you out the best that I can.
