RSS Feeds Information
Welcome to the new NWC RSS information page. From here, you can subscribe to our RSS feeds. See below for more information on RSS and news readers.
Cut-and-paste the feed URL into your news reader.
What is RSS?
RSS was originally developed by Netscape as a tool for building portals of headlines and links to mainstream news sites. (See our encyclopedia entry on RSS) Now, anyone can use RSS to monitor their favorite websites in one interface.
RSS Aggregators
In order to use RSS, you need a piece of software called a "news aggregator". Some aggregators work as software you run on your computer. Others are web-based and permit readers to access their feeds from anywhere. In either case, you'll need to provide the software with the URLs of the feeds you wish to follow (ours are listed to the left). Thereafter, the aggregator will keep track of your feeds, and you'll know whenever new articles are published.
Some popular web-based readers include
Bloglines,
Newsgator, and
My Yahoo, though there are many others.
