What are feeds?Feeds are a free service that automatically sends information about new Web content. Feeds save users from having to repeatedly visit favorite Web sites to check for new content or be notified of updates via email. EPA uses feeds to transmit news headlines and media files.
What do I need to use feeds?To receive feeds, you need a program which can automatically check feed-enabled Web pages that you select and then display any updated information it finds. If you are using the latest version of your browser (ie Internet Explorer 7, FireFox 2, etc.), it is likely the browser can itself subscribe to the feed. There are numerous feed readers available, including many that are free of charge. Most are simply desktop programs that you download and install on your computer. There are also Web-based feed readers that need no software installation and make the "feeds" available on any computer with Web access. Once the news reader program is set up, you are ready to subscribe to the content feeds you want.
How can I get a news reader?The online encyclopedia Wikipedia lists dozens of news readers. You may also search using the terms “RSS reader” or “podcatching” on Yahoo, Google, or your favorite search engine.
Why use feeds?Feeds alert you to new content that may interest you. Subscribing to the EPA Homeland Security Research feed makes you one of the first to know when a news release has been issued. EPA also offers a variety of feeds to subscribe to so you can select news releases of the greatest interest to you. You can also use feeds on other Web sites, including news organizations, technology companies, and other government agencies.
