What are RSS feeds?

Féile on YouTube RSS, or Really Simple Syndication, shows you the latest headlines from your favorite sites all in one place. RSS feeds inform you when new material is posted on our website. This saves you a lot of time because you don’t have to check each of our sites individually. Many websites, including governmental departments offer RSS feeds.

How do I read an RSS feed?

You can read an RSS feed using Firefox, Google Chrome, Safari, Opera or an up to date version of Internet Explorer.

You can also choose to opt for an RSS feed reader, or news reader. Some feed readers need to be downloaded to your computer, others are web-based. These include FeedReader, NewsGator, My Yahoo!, and Google Reader.

The RSS symbol lets you know that a feed is available. Once you have selected your feed reader you need to ‘subscribe’ to RSS feeds. Just look for the RSS symbol and click on the link. Ignore any code that may be displayed – the important bit you need is the page address from your browser’s address bar. Just copy that into your RSS feed reader or browser, and you’re flying!
