What are "feeds?"
You may have also heard them referred to as RSS feeds (for "Really Simple Syndication"), Atom feeds, or web syndication. Whatever you choose to call them, feeds are a way for a website to provide users with automatic updates. Using a program known as a news reader or aggregator, a user can quickly and efficiently receive updates from a number of websites at once.
If a stand-alone program is not your preference, then you can use one of the numerous web-based news readers, such as Bloglines or Google Reader. Some of the more recent browsers, such as Firefox and Safari, have built-in support for feeds. There are even services that will let you receive feed updates via email.
The method for receiving (or "subscribing to") a particular feed does vary by which news reader you are using. It usually requires copying the URL of the particular feed and pasting into the news reader. The URLs for the feeds currently offered by EHP are in the box at the top of this page.
