RSS stands for Really Simple Syndication. It is a lightweight XML format designed for sharing headlines and other content.
It allows you to continually pull text headlines from a variety of different sources all in one handy place. When you click on a headline in an RSS reader, it then takes you to that story on our site.
First you need a RSS reader to view RSS feeds. There are three types: those that run as a standalone application, some integrate directly into your existing web browser or mail reader, and some are directly built into your web browser.
We suggest using Internet Explorer 7.0 because it has a built in RSS feed reader. While this is what we suggest you use there are other options available. Following is a list of popular RSS readers that can be installed and used:

After you have installed your RSS reader, you can now subscribe to our RSS feed.
Just click on the RSS icon to see the feed. If you get a bunch code, you don't have an RSS reader installed on your system. You may have to copy and past the URL from the address line in your browser and paste it in to the appropriate field of your RSS Reader.
