What is RSS?

RSS stands for “Really Simple Syndication.” With billions of web pages circulating on the Internet, trying to find precisely the right ones—and the right content within them—can pose quite a problem. RSS is a solution, allowing cfr.org to deliver customized “feeds” of content to you each day. Feeds exist both for audio and text content. RSS lets you choose, for instance, to get a feed on African topics or of analysis and Q&As, or if you prefer, on a wide variety of subjects of your choosing. You can also simply sign up to the main cfr.org feed, which will stream the headlines of all CFR content to you so you’ll never miss any of the institution’s varied publications. Essentially, RSS allows you to choose what you want to read and have it delivered directly to you, whenever you want. These feeds are then available on demand wherever you’ve decided to put them: in your Internet browser’s “Favorites,” for instance; in the customized “RSS” areas of personalized sites like “MyYahoo,” or, for audio content, directly into your iPod or other MP3 player.

How do I use an RSS feed?

RSS feeds generally are accessed using a piece of software called a “news reader.” This software, often available for free, allows you to display and subscribe to RSS feeds.

Once you have chosen a news reader, go to the cfr.org RSS page and subscribe to the feeds of your choice by clicking on the orange RSS button beside each category. You can then either copy and paste the web address (URL) of the feed into your news reader or drag and drop it in.

Some browsers, including Firefox, Opera and Safari, have news-reader functionality built right in.
