RSS Feeds

News Feeds or RSS - what is it?

Short for "Really Simple Syndication," RSS is a feed that consists of a list of headlines. For instance, AeroplaneMonthly.co.uk's RSS feed supplies continually updated aeroplane news headlines - with a link on each headline to the article, in case you would like to read more.

How can I get AeroplaneMonthly.co.uk's RSS feed?

To create your own customized page where you can receive feeds from AeroplaneMonthly.co.uk, you need a dedicated RSS 'aggregator' or reader software. Some readers run on your desktop and behave much like common e-mail software, while others are web-based.
