RSS Feeds

What is an RSS feed?

RSS is most commonly known as "Really Simple Syndication" or "Rich Site Summary" they are a summary of any new items to a site.

RSS feeds update automatically and give subscribers a quick and easy overview of new content on their favourite sites.

RSS feeds provide varying levels of information, from just a heading which links through a new full page, to story summaries, multimedia pictures, video or audio and in some cases full articles. Arts Victoria's RSS feed displays an overview, a picture and a link for more information.

How do I find RSS feeds?
