What Tools Do I Need to Use RSS?

To start using RSS, you need a news reader or aggregator that displays RSS content feeds from Web sites you select. There are many different news readers available on-line, many of which are free of charge. Most are available as desktop software that you download and install on your computer. Several Web-based news readers are available as well and can be found by using your favorite search engine and searching for "RSS News Readers".

Once you have set up your news reader, you simply subscribe to the RSS content feeds you want.

What Are the Benefits of Using RSS?

RSS is an easy way for you to be alerted when content that interests you appears on your favorite Web sites. Instead of visiting a particular Web site to browse for new articles and features, RSS automatically tells you when something new is posted online.
