What is RSS?
RSS (Really Simple Syndication) is an XML-based format used to distribute news and other frequently updated Web site content. RSS is an increasingly popular way for readers to keep track of their favorite Web sites without have to actually visit the sites. The Communications site offers RSS feeds of current and recent articles, abstracts, and content.
Using RSS
There are a number of ways to use RSS feeds:
- Install an RSS news reader (also called an aggregator) on your computer to display feeds from Web sites you select. When a site updates its RSS feed, the new content will be available in your news reader. There are many readers available, and some are free. Find a sample listing of news readers at blogspace.com or a more complete listing via Google.
- Use your Web browser. Most browser software now support RSS feeds either natively or via plug-ins. If your browser does not support RSS feeds, please install its latest version, use an alternate browser, or install an RSS reader to view RSS feeds.
- If you maintain a Web site and would like to display Communications’ RSS feeds on your site, you are welcome to do so. Tools such as Free Digest or server-side scripts such as PHP or Perl allow you to integrate RSS into your Web pages.
