What are news feeds?

News feeds allow you to be kept up to date with the latest news from any source you choose. You can have breaking news and announcements beamed to your desktop without ever having to visit a website!

How do I use news feeds?

By using software that will allow you to read and then if you choose subscribe to the feed. Subscribing to the feed alerts you automatically of the latest news coming from that source. These software packages are called News readers and some of the best ones are free.

Some modern browsers already support RSS these include:

Internet Explorer 7
Firefox

If you are using one of these you need look no further! Consult your browsers documentation on using RSS news feeds.

"This is a great honour; I love the thought of becoming part of the landscape alongside Dick Wagstaff and the great Richard Burton. I'm hoping that my sculpture might be able to persuade Burton's sculpture to quote some poetry of an evening, or at least a bit of War of the Worlds." Rob Brydon
