An RSS feed is a special kind of web page which
modern browsers (eg Internet Explorer 7
or later and Mozilla Firefox v2
and upwards) can use to automatically update information streams.
You could think of it as a "self-updating bookmark".
If your copy of Internet Explorer shows this
symbol on the address bar at the top of the page, then you can
subscribe to feeds. Other browsers show the symbol elsewhere (Firefox
shows it in the address bar, but only when there's a feed on the
page).
If you "subscribe" (it doesn't cost
anything!) to one of these feeds, your browser will automatically
seek and display links to newly posted information. In other words,
we can notify you of items and events without you having to go
to the website and look for them.
Subscribing to the feed just means you receive
the information, there's no charge for it!
Unfortunately, older browser versions may only
dislplay the page code, which means that it's time for you to
upgrade if you want to benefit from this service.
