RSS stands for ‘Really Simple Syndication’ and is a new way of keeping up to date with your favourite blogs. It automatically tells you when a blog gets updated. All you need to get started is an RSS reader which comes in many shapes and sizes, but personally I use Google Reader.
This feed reader works a little like email. As you subscribe to feeds you’ll see that unread entries from the sites you’re tracking will be marked as bold. As you click on them you’ll see the latest update and can read it right there in the feed reader. You are given the option to click through to the actual site or move onto the next unread item - marking the last one as ‘read’.
Simply download Google Reader and then click on the ’subscribe to wowblogger’ link in the top right of every page on the blog!
Still don’t understand RSS? See if these two links explain things better than me:
Problogger’s guide to RSS
RSS the Oprah Way
If you would like to receive my posts by email every time a new one is published simply use the box in the top right hand corner of the site to fill in your address. You can unsubscribe at any time and your email will be kept private and not used for any other purposes than to send these updates.
