ANA  Newsletter  via  RSS     


What is RSS ?  

RSS, which stands for Really Simple Syndication, is a lightweight XML format designed to share text and other Web content. It is used by computer programs to organize this content for easy reading, presenting it in a way that makes it simple to see when there is new material available, or when material has been updated.

Many news and merchant sites, including ANA & Associates, make an RSS Feed available (you can tell these sites because they typically carry an easily-identified orange symbol with the letters RSS). Readers then pick up this feed with special (usually free) software called a Feed Reader or Aggregator, which checks RSS-enabled websites for you and displays what it finds.

Depending on the source, RSS will deliver the entire text of the story to your newsreader, or just the first paragraph or headline. Clicking on that headline will take you straight to the full story via your web browser.


How to use RSS Feed ?


The only thing you need to do, to start using RSS, is to obtain a  Feed Reader.   Many readers are available, either as stand-alone programs, extensions to existing programs (such as a plug-in for your web browser), or as web-based applications.  Web-based readers don’t require you to download or install any software.  Instead, you simply log in from any computer with Web access and check your feeds.

Most popular reader is offered by Google at no charge.  To sign up now, click here FREE  RSS  READER.   For other available readers you may search a list at Wikipedia, by clicking here, search for RSS Reader.

Once you make a selection, follow the instructions to setup your reader.  When you are finished, you can subscribe to any of the RSS feeds. This usually involves copying the URL, or web address, of the feed.

Once you copy the URL, follow the instructions offered by your particular newsreader and paste the feed into the proper location. And that’s it! Your subscription feed will automatically update every time that something new is posted.

NOTE: This is the great way to get news and updates of your favorite websites!  Eliminate clicks and have the news brought to you automatically!
