What Is RSS?
RSS stands for Really Simple Syndication. It's an easy way to keep up with news and information that's important to you, and helps you avoid browsing or searching for information on websites. Now the content you want can be delivered directly to you. This content is called a "feed." To receive RSS feeds, you need a reader. You usually see RSS feeds labeled with one of these icons:

What Is An RSS Reader?
An RSS reader is a small software program that collects and displays RSS feeds. It allows you to scan headlines from a number of news sources.
Where Can I Get An RSS Reader?
Most current browsers have built-in RSS readers. If you're using a browser that doesn't currently support RSS, there are a variety of RSS readers available on the web; some are free to download and others are available for purchase. Just type "rss reader" into your favorite search tool, such as Google or Yahoo.
How Do I Use RSS Feeds?
The first step is to choose an RSS reader. Each reader has a slightly different way of adding a new feed. Follow the directions for your reader but, in most cases, here's how it works:
Click on the link or small orange button near the feed. Many times a box will pop up and you will be asked if you want to subscribe to the feed. Just click "yes". You also may see a page displaying raw code for the feed. In this case, copy the URL (web address) from your browser's address bar. For example, the URL you would copy for Emmanuel's weekly bulletins would be http://www.emmanuelhudson.org/rss/bulletin.xml. Paste that URL into the "Add New Feed" section of the reader. The RSS feed will start to display and regularly update the headlines for you.
