They search for new information from a website and bring it to you in one location.   There are thousands of sites with RSS feeds from CNN to personal &ldquo;blogs&rdquo; - like this one.


Like e-mail, Newsreaders come in several formats.   There are stand-alone programs (like Outlook), web-based programs (like Hotmail or G-mail), and even screensavers that bring the latest news from the sources you select directly to your desktop.   Some browsers have integrated RSS readers or plug-ins that can do the job.   There are also mobile applications that work on specific cell phone platforms.


The Google searches below will show you a variety of programs which will allow you to subscribe to RSS feeds.   The CHS Band and Canton High School take no responsibility for the content of the following links or anything that may happen to your computer set-up as a result of installing one of these programs.


Free Windows RSS Readers


Free Mac RSS Readers  (I use Vienna on my home computer)


Web-based RSS Readers


RSS Screensavers


Follow the instructions for the reader of your choice.   Most of them involve pasting the web address of the page with the following &ldquo;RSS Feed&rdquo; text and symbol into your reader.   Some browsers will allow you to click on the text and then select the reader from your hard drive.   You may also see an RSS symbol in the address bar that serves the same function.


Set your program to check for news as often as you like, or refresh your news feeds manually. 


Hopefully this will prove to be an effective way to keep everyone informed of CHS Band happenings.
