About RSS

What is RSS?
RSS (Really Simple Syndication) is an XML-based format for sharing and distributing web content. What does that mean to you? You can get the latest headlines delivered to you. For example, using one of the AAFP News Now (ANN) RSS feeds, you can receive ANN headlines, including story summaries and links to full stories, as soon as they are published.

How do I start using RSS feeds?

First, you will need a news reader. A news reader downloads and displays RSS feeds for you. Some news readers are software you download and install on your computer and others allow you to add RSS feeds to a web page. RSS readers include Google and Bloglines.

How do I add RSS feeds to my news reader?
In general, you can add feeds to your news reader by clicking on the orange RSS icon anywhere you see it. Copy the link from the address bar and paste it into your news reader.
