RSS Feed

Hello dear viewers,

Today I am going to remember you how awesome a RSS Feed is. It allows you to keep track of all blog posts on any site of you choice, aggregating them into one place only, that you can view any time and check updates for your favorite topics. Here, take a look at how Wikipedia describes the advantages of using a RSS Feed:

Web feeds have some advantages compared to receiving frequently published content via an email:

  • When subscribing to a feed, users do not disclose their email address, so users are not increasing their exposure to threats associated with email: spam, viruses, phishing, and identity theft.
  • If users want to stop receiving news, they do not have to send an “unsubscribe” request; users can simply remove the feed from their aggregator.
  • The feed items are automatically “sorted” in the sense that each feed URL has its own sets of entries (unlike an email box, where all mails are in one big pile and email programs have to resort to complicated rules and pattern matching).

A “Feed Reader” is required for using web feeds. This tool works like an automated e-mail program, but no e-mail address is needed. The user subscribes to a particular web feed, and thereafter receives updated content, every time updating takes place. Feed Readers may be online (like a webmail account) or offline. Recently a number of mobile readers have arrived to the market. An offline web feed is downloaded to the user’s system. Feed readers are used in personalized home page services like iGoogle or My Yahoo or My MSN to put content such as news, weather and stock quotes on the user’s personal page. Content from other sites can also be added to that personalized page, again using feeds.

Simply, what you would be doing is subscribing RunescapeAddicts and getting all new posts in a simple and easy way, without delay, and much more comfortable. Can you imagine getting all your fresh Runescape news on your mainpage, or a toolbar? And by subscribing to RSA, you can also subscribe to any other site of your choice, letting you put together the content you’re interested in to maximize your time on the internet.

Easier ways to follow RunescapeAddicts are by either adding us to your iGoogle or RSS Feed, but the single best one is by downloading our wonderful themed toolbar, where you can quick link yourself to the blog or forums, it alerts you of new blog posts, new messages from site administration specifically for toolbar users, and also let’s you follow any of the Jagex Twitters in real time, amongst some other useful gadgets, like searching the web or just one website, checking your IP, or playing fun flash games.

See, you can improve your internet usage with some simple steps. Either download our toolbar, or add us to your iGoogle or RSS Feed, by clicking the appropriate link on your right.

Thanks for reading and I hope I helped,

Nyk
