What Is an RSS Feed?
An RSS (Really Simple Syndication) feed or a "news feed" is a listing of content on a website. APA's feeds provide eligible subscribers with lists of jobs, RFPs/RFQs, and new books. These lists are updated automatically when new items are added. When subscribers click on the headline of an item in their feed reader, they are brought to the APA website to read it.
How Do I Begin?
Step one is to choose a news reader if you don't use one already. A news reader is simply a piece of software that you use to read all your subscribed news feeds, from APA and other sources, in one place. You may already use a web browser or e-mail program that doubles as a feed reader.
Name Some News Feed Readers
Commonly used news readers are Feed Demon, Sharp Reader, and NewsGator (an Outlook plugin) for Windows, NetNewsWire and Shrook for Macs, and Bloglines.com for those who like web-based readers.
You can find even more news readers at itopik.com.
My Yahoo!, iGoogle, and Google Reader are also popular options. Feeds may also be read in Internet Explorer 7.0 and 8.0, in Firefox, and in Microsoft Outlook 2007.
