Subscribe to MM via RSS
November 26, 2008 – 5:09 pmThere are many ways to view information via the internet these days. RSS is just one of them. If you browse certain websites/blogs often (like Missions Mandate, of course!) subscribing to an RSS feed from the site can save you time and effort.
RSS stands for Real Simple Syndication (most popular definition among many). Basically it serves as an “errand boy” to bring the latest posts from your favorite news sites and blogs to you, as opposed to you visiting each individual site. To start using RSS, follow these two easy steps: 1) Sign up with an RSS reader; 2) Add RSS subscriptions to your reader. The posts below offer more detailed instructions.
Anytime you see the orange RSS symbol (scroll to the bottom of this post) you can add an RSS subscription to your RSS reader.
To subscribe to the Missions Mandate RSS Feed, click the big orange RSS symbol at the bottom of this post. There is also an RSS symbol on the bottom of the right sidebar on every MM page.
Here are a few posts that serve as good introduction to what RSS is and how it can be helpful to you:
