What Is RSS?
It's "the next big thing" -- you can use it to get news feeds from CNN or
BBC, as well as just about anything else, including news on
upcoming movies, DVD releases, etc.
Once you get started, it's like having your favorite parts of the Web
come to you. No need to go out and check for updates all the time.
"RSS" means "Really Simple Syndication." That means you can keep current with
Northwest Ohio Nature without having to check the site every week to see "what's new."
Whenever there is a new page or an update to an old one, it is released through RSS.
Ohio Nature is ever-changing. There are always new species that are
discovered, interesting pictures added, and great new recommendations for things
to see and do.
There may also be
an article or two about certain nature topics. All of these will be
automatically sent to you if you subscribe to the RSS feed.
Once you start, you'll soon be tracking all your other favorite
interests and news in the world.
Just download a free RSS Reader first (skip to bottom if you do not want to
download software). This is special software that reads the "RSS feeds"
from the largest news organizations right down to little ones like NW Ohio
Nature.
