What is RSS?
In a world heaving under the weight of billions of web pages, keeping up to date with the information you want can be a drag.
Wouldn't it be better to have the latest news and features delivered directly to you, rather than clicking from site to site? Well now you can, thanks to a very clever service, RSS.
There is some discussion as to what RSS stands for, but the majority plump for 'Really Simple Syndication'. Put plainly, it allows you to identify the content you like and have it delivered directly to you.
It takes the hassle out of staying up-to-date, by showing you the very latest information that you are interested in.
Not all websites currently provide RSS, but it is growing rapidly in popularity and many others, including the Guardian, New York Times and CNN do provide it.
If you click on the button you can subscribe to the feed in various ways, including by dragging the URL of the RSS feed into your news reader or by cutting and pasting the same URL into a new feed in your news reader.
Some browsers, including Firefox, Opera and Safari, have functionality which automatically picks up RSS feeds for you. For more details on these, please check their websites.
For many RSS enabled browsers, when you go to our home page you will see an orange icon at the bottom right of the browser window. Clicking on this icon brings up a box with the words 'Subscribe to Learning English RSS'. If you select this then a new bookmark will be created on your toolbar (or wherever you specify.) This bookmark will have links to all of the latest articles, activities, quizzes etc. Each time you open the browser or refresh the live bookmark it will automatically update with the latest links
