 RSS Subscriptions
RSS Explained
It is important that we explain to our website visitors what RSS is,
why you may want to use it, and how to use it. The following information
can be republished on other web sites if you wish!
What is RSS?
R.S.S. , is an acronym for Really Simple
Syndication. RSS feeds are an easy
and efficient way to receive notification when new information is
available in any of our specific areas of interest.
How Can I Benefit From RSS?
RSS feeds save time, allowing users to receive notification only when NEW
content is available. Web site visitors choose the information they
wish to subscribe to and can unsubscribe from any feed at any point.
Mardi Gras Digest will only send out alerts 3 times per week, unless
something happens that you NEED to know about!
How Do I Subscribe to RSS Feeds?
First you will need an RSS feed reader (also called a news aggregator)
there are a number of RSS readers available. A short list is available
at http://www.rss-specifications.com/rss-software.htm
RSS readers are simply programs that display the contents of an RSS
feed in an easy to read format. These simple programs will not slow your
computer down nor will they cause any problems!
Once you have an RSS reader you simply click the icon or a link to
the RSS feed and paste it into your RSS reader. Some readers will auto
detect the presence of an RSS feed on a website and you can optionally
choose to subscribe.
