Information on RSS & Podcasts

RSS

What is an RSS feed?
Really Simple Syndication (RSS) automatically updates you every time something new is added to this site.

What do I need to do?
First find a RSS "aggregator" (a program that goes out and gets the information for you and presents it all in one place).  Bloglines and NewsGator are free online services that will gather feeds for you and display them on one central web page.  FeedBlitz is an online service that allows you to have feeds sent directly to your Inbox as e-mail. You can also bookmark the feed using the RSS feature in Firefox and Internet Explorer 7.

What do I get?
Direct links to new media that is posted on activeWord.org. Click Here for our RSS feed.
