How To Subscribe To STFM's RSS Feed RSS (What's RSS?)

The What's RSS? link above explains the basics of what an RSS feed is and why RSS feeds are useful. STFM has an RSS feed that provides the latest news for STFM members.

To subscribe to STFM's RSS feed, you will need an RSS reader (also called an RSS aggregrator), which is a separate software program. You can find information about RSS readers available here.

After you've installed an RSS reader, you have to copy the URL of the RSS feed page (http://www.stfm.org/whatsnew.xml for STFM's RSS feed) into the RSS reader.

If you use My Yahoo, Google, or AOL, they have an RSS reader and you would copy the URL of the RSS page in to it. Then anytime you log in to your Yahoo, Google, or AOL account you will see the latest news from STFM. You can also try the links below to add STFM's RSS feed:

My AOL       My Yahoo!

Google        BlogLines

There are many other popular RSS readers available and each works slightly differently. But what each needs is the URL of the RSS feed. That is what you get when click on the RSS icon. You would copy the web page address (http://www.stfm.org/whatsnew.xml) into the RSS reader.

If you use the FireFox web browser, it comes with an RSS reader. To add our RSS feed to FireFox you need to click on the orange broadcast icon in the lower right of the FireFox window. Then select subscribe to RSS and put the bookmark in your Bookmarks Toolbar Folder and the STFM RSS feed will appear on the toolbar and you can click on it to see the latest news from STFM.

If you have questions about how to use STFM's RSS feed, please contact Bruce Phillips at 800-274-2237, ext 5405 or email bphillip@stfm.org.
