Do you find it difficult to keep up with news and information from the internet when it is published sporadically? With RSS, you will be notified of all news from those of us who produce RSS content. More and more players are supporting RSS as a medium for mediating information.
RSS stands for ‘Really Simple Syndication’ and is a technology which is essentially based on you subscribing to what is known as an ‘RSS channel’. You will then be notified each time anything new is published on the website that distributes the RSS articles.
On our pages, RSS feeds are shown in the form of a clickable orange icon . You will receive the notification either in your web browser, in your e-mail program or in a separate RSS program.
