Concert Archive and News RSS Feeds

What is RSS?

RSS stands for either Rich Site Summary or Really Simple Syndication, depending on who you ask. No matter which you prefer, it comes down to the fact that it is a way to deliver regularly changing web content, without filling your email inbox.

Needless to say, this is a good thing, and it is becoming very main-stream as everyone from big name news sites like Google News and CNN.com, to self-promoting bloggers can keep their visitors current.

How Do I Subscribe?

The first thing you need is a Feed Reader, or Aggregator. These are often available for free - and can be web-based, such as Google Reader, on your desktop FeedReader, or through your email program. Newer versions of Outlook have this built in.

To subscribe, you simply need to visit the rss page, and click the 'Subscribe to this Feed button'. Now as content gets updated on the site, it will automatically be delivered to your Aggregator. Sites that have RSS feeds often identify themselves using an orange icon with the letters RSS, XML, or RDF. Most browsers will have a small orange icon on the toolbar that will display if the site has syndicated content.
