What Is RSS?

"RSS" means "Really Simple Syndication."

Most people who want to read a newspaper simply go to the news web site.

RSS means just the opposite where the news comes to you when you want it.

Not only news but any favorite web sites that you've bookmarked can be included.

So you can keep up with all the updates to Windows XP How To without having to check the site every week to see "what's new." Whenever I put up a new page or update an old one, I release it through RSS. And...

And once you start, you'll soon be tracking all your other favorite interests and news in the world.

How do you get started?

Download free RSS Reader first (skip to bottom if you do not want to download software). This is special software that reads the "RSS feeds" from the largest news organizations right down to this web site.

Windows -- RssReader http://www.rssreader.com/

Mac -- NetNewsWire http://ranchero.com/netnewswire/

Once you're set up, here's all you have to do...

Right-click (control-click for Mac users) on any orange RSS button on a site, blog or news source that interests you. Start by right-clicking on the orange button to the left (navigation bar). Then...

Select Copy Shortcut ("Copy Link to Clipboard" for Mac), and paste that URL into your RSS Reader.

And that's it! You're subscribed.

Right-click and get started.
