What is an RSS Feed?
RSS stands for Really Simple Syndication and it is a method that you can use to be alerted when content that interests (news, job openings) you appears on your favorite websites. Instead of having to go to the web page, RSS can automatically tell you when something new is posted online.
There are several ways of getting RSS feeds: using a News Reader, having it delivered to your email, or just viewing it in your browser when you are on our site.
On websites, you will often see an orange symbol,  to let you know that a feed is available.
Or you may see a hyperlink with the words "RSS Feed." Clicking on the symbol
or hyperlink may display funny looking code or it may display information in a readable manner.
If you see funny looking code, your web browser may not be able to display the
feed properly, in which case you may want to upgrade your browser or use a News
Reader instead.
Q - How do I access the RSS information? It looks like programming code when I click the RSS Link or RSS symbol!
A - Actually, it is programming code. RSS is a form of XML. The raw RSS file is not meant to be read directly.
Instead, a specialized program is used to read the file. Newer versions of browsers can read and properly display an RSS file without the need for any additional software. But if your browser does not read it, and instead shows you confusing code, then you
may need an RSS Reader to view this file.
By searching on the Internet, you can find lots of RSS Readers, many of which are free.
Below are some links to a couple of free News Reader programs for Microsoft
Windows users:
It may be possible for you to add our RSS feed to your email if it supports RSS (Outlook 2007 does). In this case, our news feeds would show up directly in your email without you having to visit our website or any additional program.
