Introduction
RSS (Really Simple Syndication) is an easy way to be alerted when new content appears on your favorite websites.
RSS-enabled sites have files called "RSS feeds" or "news feeds" that describe the latest updates to the site. RSS-enabled sites usually have an orange XML or RSS button to let you know that a feed is available.
When you subscribe to an RSS Feed with the appropriate software, you will be alerted when new information is available - without the need to visit each of the web sites or blogs that you are interested in tracking.

RSS News and Feed Reader Software
The easiest way to experience RSS is through an RSS "news reader" or "aggregator" for your computer.
A news reader will automatically fetch and organize recent content and provide simple ways to read it. In other words, you spend less time searching for content and more time enjoying it.
Today there is an ever growing list of web browsers, news readers and feed readers that support RSS and the City's new RSS feeds feature.
This is not meant to be a comprehensive listing or an endorsement, but checking these links will give you access to some of the products that can help you take advantage of this interesting new web site feature.
