How to use March Plasma Systems News Feed
News feeds allow you to see when websites have added new content. You can get
the latest headlines and video in one place, as soon as its published, without
having to visit the websites you have taken the feed from.
Feeds are also known as RSS. There is some discussion as to what RSS stands for,
but most people plump for 'Really Simple Syndication'. In essence, the feeds
themselves are just web pages, designed to be read by computers rather than
people.
How do I start using feeds?
In general, the first thing you need is something called a news reader. This is
a piece of software that checks the feeds and lets you read any new articles
that have been added. There are many different versions, some of which are
accessed using a browser, and some of which are downloadable applications.
Browser-based news readers let you catch up with your RSS feed subscriptions
from any computer, whereas downloadable applications let you store them on your
main computer, in the same way that you either download your e-mail using
Outlook, or keep it on a web-based service like Hotmail.
If you click on the RSS button you can subscribe to the March Plasma Systems feed in various ways,
including by dragging the URL of the feed into your news reader or by cutting
and pasting the same URL into a new feed in your news reader. Most sites that
offer feeds use a similar orange button, but some may just have a normal web
link.
Some browsers, including Firefox, Opera and Safari, automatically check for
feeds for you when you visit a website, and display an icon when they find one.
This can make subscribing to feeds much easier. For more details on these,
please check their websites.
