HOW
TO USE OUR RSS NEWS FEEDS
RSS, also known as Really
Simple Syndication or Rich Site Summary, is an open-source XML-based
file format that allows syndication and distribution of content.
Through RSS, links to our stories can be delivered to a desktop
or used in a blog or on a Web site. The RSS news feeds provided
by floridatoday.com offer headlines that are linked to our site
for the full story.
How
to use our feeds
The
format of the news feeds allows them to be easily read by Web
sites and by desktop software programs known as news readers
or news aggregators. Readers may be desktop applications, such
as the reader provided by Amphetadesk,
or Web-based, such as the Rocket
RSS Reader.
Currently,
there are six feeds available from floridatoday.com. To subscribe
to a feed, click its link or the orange button next to its link.
Copy the URL, and paste it into the news reader you're using
under the option that adds a new feed or channel.
Our
feeds include headlines and links to stories. Our Breaking News
feed is updated with new stories throughout the day as breaking
news is posted to floridatoday.com. The number of headlines varies
with the number of stories carried daily.
If
you have questions or comments about our RSS feeds, please e-mail
us.
