what is RSS?
RSS (Really Simple Syndication) Subscriptions are a very easy way for bloggers and other websites to distribute content to a wide number of people. RSS is accessed via a “feed” which you put into your browser or special programs called aggregators to read the new content.
why should i subscribe?
Repeatedly checking a website for updates can be tedious but if you subscribe to the RSS feed, updates will be delivered to you.
how do i subscribe?
If you are new to RSS subscriptions the quickest way to get started is through your web browser. All modern browsers recognize when a website has an RSS feed available and allows you to very easily access it.
If your preferred browser is Microsoft’s Internet Explorer:
- Find the RSS icon in your Toolbar. If you click the small arrow next to it you will see a list of available feeds. To subscribe to peacefruit click “peacefruit Posts RSS feed.”
- Now you will be taken to this screen which briefly explains how RSS works in Internet Explorer and has a link for you to subscribe.
- That’s It! Your subscribed feeds will now be available alongside your Favorites.
For more information on RSS in Internet Explorer please visit Microsoft’s website.
If your preferred browser is Mozilla’s Firefox or Apple’s Safari the process is VERY similar. Simply find the RSS icon, select the feed, and the browser will guide you through the rest.
