Church Sets Up RSS Feeds

iPod Hi-Fi The Church has recently added RSS (Really Simple Syndication) capability to several of its key Web pages. "RSS" can allow you to stay informed about updates on Web pages that are of interest to you--without having to go to each page to find the updates.

To use this technology, you simply install or sign up for an RSS news reader or aggregator, which collects and summarizes the content from the RSS-compatible Web pages that you choose.

To learn more, go to www.lds.org/rss, which contains more detailed information and a continually updated list of the Church's RSS-compatible Web pages.

Note from Latter-Day Mac: Mac users are able to read RSS news feeds using Safari, which has a built in RSS aggregator. Safari RSS lets you take these news feeds and view them together in a simple, ad-free list, so you can quickly find all the articles that interest you from across the Web. Safari is compatible with all the RSS feeds on the Internet because of its standards-based support for RSS 0.9, RSS 1, RSS 2 and Atom.

When Safari encounters a RSS feed, it displays every headline and article summary right in the browser window. To read the complete article, click on the headline or summary to retrieve the web page. Safari has a slider control for customizing the displayed length of each article summary and controls for sorting and filtering displayed articles by Date, Title and Source.
