What are
News Feeds?
News feeds allow you to see when websites have added new
content. You can get the latest CBI news headlines in
one place, as soon as its published, without having to
visit the websites you have taken the feed from.
Feeds are
also known as RSS. There is some discussion as to what
RSS stands for, but most people plump for 'Really Simple
Syndication'. In essence, the feeds themselves are just
web pages, designed to be read by computers rather than
people.
How do I
start using feeds?
In general, the first thing you need is something called
a news reader. This is a piece of software that checks
the feeds and lets you read any new articles that have
been added. There are many different versions, some of
which are accessed using a browser, and some of which
are downloadable applications.
Browser-based news readers let you catch up with your
RSS feed subscriptions from any computer, whereas
downloadable applications let you store them on your
computer, in the same way that you either download your
e-mail using Outlook, or keep it on a web-based service
like Hotmail.
Once you have chosen a news reader, all you have to do
is to decide what content you want it to receive. For
example, if you want to subscribe to the latest CBI
News, simply click the RSS button at the top of this
page.
If you click on the RSS button you can subscribe to the
feed in various ways, including by dragging the URL
of the feed into your news reader or by cutting and
pasting the same URL into a new feed in your news
reader.
Online
news readers:
Some browsers, including Internet Explorer 7, Firefox,
Opera and Safari have a "one-click" subscription
service: they automatically check for feeds for you when
you visit a website, and display an icon when they find
one. For more details, please check their websites.
There are also specialized websites that provide
RSS-reading functionality, they are:
Bloglines,
FeedZilla,
Google Reader,
NewsGator,
Microsoft
Live,
My Yahoo! and
Rojo.
Downloadable RSS Readers:
There is a range of different news readers available and
new versions are appearing all the time.
Different news readers work on different operating
systems, so you will need to choose one that will work
with your computer.
