Have you seen the little icons popping up all over the Web? Well, these images aren’t just for decoration. They indicate when a site has made their information available for syndication. Syndication means that certain information on the site is updated regularly and can be re-published or read by others through a technology known as an RSS or XML feed.

These feeds can contain information that identifies news articles, web log posts or anything else the owner wants to make available to others. Think of RSS or XML feeds as a digital magazine subscription. They make it easy for you to subscribe to information you find interesting or useful.

Why Should I use an RSS or Atom Feed?

Not everyone likes to visit a web site to get the latest content. The BusinessMakers has included feeds that allow you to receive our content in your favorite newsreader. Newsreaders have the ability to pull all of the content across so that you don’t have to visit the web site to get the content. Once you have subscribed to the content you will automatically be informed when new content is available. This helps to cut down on the time it takes you to review your favorite sites or news sources.

How Do I Subscribe?

To subscribe you will need a newsreader. You can use one of the many news readers available. Here is a list of popular newsreaders and aggregators.
