So how do you do it?
Step 1: Find the RSS feed from a web tool that outputs RSS
Look for one of these icons on the website(Atom is a similar format
to RSS - and works the same)
and click it.
Step 2: Copy the address of the feed to the clipboard
Either copy it from your browsers address bar, or, when you aresure you have found a feed, go back to the link you clicked - and this time ‘right-click’ it, and select ‘Copy link location’
Step 3: Paste the address into a tool that consumes RSS
That’s it - you’ve just connected two bits of the internet together!

Using RSS Feeds you can:
• Publish content once, and have it seen in many places - taking content to where people are;
• Provide content to your constituency on their platform of choice - whether that is online, e-mail, using RSS readers or even print;
• Allow others to easily remix and re-use your content - creating new opportunities for people to engage with you;
• Keep track of information and interaction across the web by setting up your own personal dashboard of RSS feeds;
