What is a RSS News Feed?
A RSS (Really Simple Syndication) News Feed is a quick and simple way of getting news headlines from a number of websites all in one go. The software which does this is called a News Aggregator. There are thousands of websites providing RSS feeds, amongst them are the BBC, Reuters, the Telegraph, Microsoft and Yahoo News. Sites which provide a news feed display the small orange image:

Will I end up with loads of unwanted news?
No. You subscribe only to the news feeds you want. If you change your mind it's easy to un-subscribe again. It's not like e-mail, you view the news headlines using a news aggregator - which collects and displays a list of news items when you ask it to.
How do I get a News Feed?
Simply add the RSS feed's URL (address) to your News Aggregator. The URL to the YMC's RSS feed is:
http://www.theymc.org.uk/news/ymc.rss
Copy the URL and paste it into the box provided when the Aggregator is setting up a new feed.
Where do I get a News Aggregator?
Most Web Browsers have a news reader integrated into them as do many E-mail Clients and News Group Readers. A search of the web will turn up a number of possible candidates, some with the basic requirements and others with a multitude of features. Some are free others are sold or ask for a donation.
