eplatforms News Syndication
What does the "Syndicate this site", "RSS", or "XML" link mean?
A link that says syndicate this site, RSS, or XML may means that the news on a website or web log ("blog") is made available for others to access through a news feed reader program or to use on their own website.
Why is RSS a good thing?
For the person who likes to view content, the ability to subscribe to RSS means that you can easily get content that you want without ever having to worry about spam.
The content doesn't go to your email box; it goes to a 'news reader'.
Instead of having to manually check on each of the news sites or web logs that you enjoy, your news feed reader will compile all of the latest headlines and excerpts of your favourite sites that have RSS - sometimes known as "Really Simple Syndication". You can subscribe or unsubscribe to whatever content you want.
How can I subscribe to the eplatforms RSS feed?
The first step is to download a news feed reader, or to set up a free account with one of the online news feed readers.
If you have a My Yahoo account, you can add news feeds to your page there.
Other options for online news feed readers are: -
Alternatively you can download and install news feed reader programs on your computer. A few examples: -
Then copy and paste the site's RSS URL into your news feed reader where it says to subscribe to a new feed. Find this site's RSS URL by clicking on the link that says "Syndicate this site" or "XML".
Once you have a news feed reader, that's it - you just let it know which websites' news you want to be made aware of and it does it for you automatically. Of course, you can still receive the email newsletter, as well as have 'real time' notice of when news is posted to your website of interest.
