TCH-Thomas Posted December 4, 2003 Share Posted December 4, 2003 I always wondered what RSS is, anyone for a crash course? -Thomas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
borfast Posted December 5, 2003 Share Posted December 5, 2003 Thomas, RSS stands for RDF Site Summary, if I recall correctly. It's purpose is to provide a way for other sites to fetch news headlines and such stuff from your site and place them on their site. This is achieved by using a standard "language". A search for RSS on Google gives you plenty of stuff to read Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a__kc Posted December 6, 2003 Share Posted December 6, 2003 Hey all! I'm having problems getting an RSS file generated. Is anybody familiar with RSS? What software are you using to make the RSS files? At my end I currently have Movable Type publish a few RSSs, and I also make a couple of my own from a database. I LOVE RSS! It's a simple way to export periodic contents for others to read, re-process, or otherwise display elsewhere. Rather than people going all over the Net to catch up on happenings, they'd load up their desktop or server-based RSS readers/webpages, and get everything they're interested in one go. (The only thing is, few of my buddies have the know-how to use it, which though it ain't their fault, does frustrate me....) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
