RSS Feeds
RSS or “Really Simple Syndication” permits Web publishers to become broadcasters of their content by posting short summaries of items (articles, news flashes, commentaries) added to their sites. These postings are then scanned by special programs called RSS readers, which have been placed on sites interested in receiving these summaries.
For the recipient sites (like Explore Church History), inclusion of a feed reader program means that channels or “feeds” of specialized content can be created, which keeps site visitors and members up to date on the latest developments in the subject areas covered by the site.
