What is RSS?

Really Simple Syndication (RSS) is a format designed for sharing web content such as news headlines in a standardized format. An RSS Feed highlights fresh material for you, so you don’t have to repeatedly check a site yourself for updates.

How do I use RSS?

To make use of RSS, you’ll need an RSS Reader, or aggregator. An RSS Reader can be a stand-alone application, or a plug-in for another program you already use, such as Microsoft Outlook. Some web browsers, such as Firefox and Safari RSS, have RSS Readers built in. There are an abundance of RSS Readers available which work on different systems such as NewsFire and NetNewsWire (Mac OS X), My Yahoo and Bloglines (Web), Awasu and NewzCrawler (Windows) as well as others that allow you to customize them by adding RSS Feeds. RSS Readers allow you to view the service you select in one place and, by automatically retrieving updates, stay current with new content soon after it is published.

After setting up your RSS Reader, you will be ready to use ACI’s RSS Feeds. To subscribe to one or more Feeds, follow the instructions for your particular RSS Reader.

To view a Feed in your RSS Reader:

  • Click on the RSS Feed that corresponds to the topic that interests you.
  • Copy the URL.
  • Paste the URL into your reader.
