What is RSS?
Really Simple Syndication (RSS) is a lightweight XML format
designed for sharing headlines and other Web content. RSS allows
you to access a site without going out of your way to visit it.
How do I use RSS?
RSS-aware programs called news aggregators help you keep up with
all your favorite sites, displaying new items from each of them.
Aggregators can offer a variety of special features, including
combining several related feeds into a single view, hiding items
that the viewer has already seen, and categorizing feeds and
items.
- Download and install a news aggregator (see FeedReader
below).
- From UDM websites, click on the
 logo
below the news you wish to subscribe too. You will see the raw
XML, which is
roughly human-readable, but intended for computer programs.
- Copy the link in location/address bar into your news
aggregator.
Where can I get a RSS Aggregator?
Feedreader is a
lightweight open-source aggregator that supports all major RSS
formats. It works under Windows 95 and later versions.
