Podcast Information:
What
is a feed?
A feed, also known as RSS feed, XML feed, syndicated
content, or web feed, is frequently updated content published by a
website. It is usually used for news and blog websites, but can also be used
for distributing other types of digital content, including pictures, audio or
video. Feeds can also be used to deliver audio content (usually in MP3 format)
which you can listen to on your computer or MP3 player. This is referred to as
podcasting.
How
do I view a feed?
When you visit a webpage, the Feeds button
will change color, letting you know that feeds are available. Click the Feeds
button, and then click the feed you want to see. To get content automatically,
you should subscribe to a feed. Click Related Topics to learn how to
subscribe to a web feed.
How
can I automatically get updated content?
You can receive content automatically by subscribing to a web feed. When
you subscribe to a web feed, you set the interval at which Internet Explorer
will check the website for updates. Once you've set an interval, Internet
Explorer will automatically download the most up-to-date web feed list. Click Related
Topics to learn how to subscribe to a web feed.
What
does RSS mean?
RSS stands for Really Simple Syndication, and is used to describe the
technology used in creating feeds.
