How
can I use RSS?
Typical applications for consuming or using RSS include:
- Using a program known as a News Aggregator to collect,
update and display RSS feeds
- Incorporating RSS feeds into weblogs
News Aggregators (also
called news readers) will download and display RSS feeds for you. A number of
free and commercial News Aggregators are available for download. Popular news
readers include AmphetaDesk, NetNewsWire, and Radio Userland.
Many aggregators are
separate, "stand-alone" programs such as those listed above; other
services will let you add RSS feeds to a Web page.
Another way
many people use RSS feeds is by incorporating content into weblogs, or
"blogs". Blogs are web pages comprised of usually short, frequently
updated items and web links. Blogging as a publishing tool is used for many
purposes: traditional journalism, personal journals, group discussions around a
topic, and many combinations in-between.
