What is RSS?
RSS stands for "really simple syndication" or "rich site summary." As the name implies, it's an easy
way to stay up-to-date with what's happening on a Web site. The "feed" itself is simply a message,
automatically sent to subscribers, that consists of a list of headlines and, in some cases, brief
excerpts from new content. For instance, ThisOldHouse.com's RSS feeds supply continually updated
headlines and excerpts from our latest stories, galleries, and blog posts--along with links to the full
articles on the site.
How can I get thisoldhouse.com's RSS feed?
To create your own customized page on which you can receive feeds from ThisOldHouse.com, you'll
need an RSS reader, known as an "aggregator." Some readers are standalone applications that run
on your desktop and behave much like common e-mail software, while others are Web-based. Also,
some newer browsers, such as Firefox, can handle RSS feeds.
What are the benefits of using ThisOldHouse.com's RSS feed?
Because our feeds automatically update as stories are added to the site, you get all of our excellent
home improvement help--from planning ideas to how-to repair--instantly, just when you need it.
