What is RSS?
RSS is a standard format used to share content on the Internet and receive updates from your favorite websites without having to visit each site. Imagine the time savings if you frequently scan 20 websites for news and need to go to each one to see if there is anything new. With RSS news feeds new articles will be delivered right to you and only sites with new information will be shown. Use an RSS reader to scan headlines and click the link if you are interested in reading more. You will always have the latest information because your RSS reader automatically retrieves the RSS feeds.
We also have a comments feed set up which makes it easier to track comment discussions. This way you can comment on an article and instead of rechecking the website to see if there were any responses, they can be delivered to you when they are made.
