What is RSS? RSS stands for, depending on the standards, RDF Site Summary, or Rich Site Summary, or Really Simple Syndication. It is simply a content format for sharing content among different Web sites such as news items. RSS feeds are commonly used on blogs, news sites and other websites where content is updated frequently (like AI Malaysia's). You can get a news aggregator to "pull" content for you every time a page is updated -- it allows you to see all the new content on a given page with a click of a mouse. With most news aggregators, you don't even have to visit the websites where you have subscribed to RSS feeds; you can see all the new content in one location. RSS Feeds are often indicated by links that say "RSS," "Syndicate this site" or a square orange button with the text 'RSS' or 'XML' within it. The icon below is fast becoming the standard icon to indicate RSS syndicated content :  How Do I Use An RSS Feed? In order to receive an AI Malaysia feed, first you must sign up for or download an RSS aggregator or reader utility. These utilities can be either desktop or web-based. Some examples of popular aggregators include Bloglines, Feedreader, NetNewsWire, (for mac) and Newsgator , among many others. A larger list of free downloadable RSS aggregators can be found at Snapfiles. Once you have set-up your RSS aggregator, you are now ready to add an AI Malaysia feed to your list of RSS feeds. To do that, click on one of the RSS icon below next to the feed you are interested in. In your browser, you will then see XML code. This is raw code that is not meant to be viewed in your browser and can be ignored. Instead, copy the URL link in the address window in your internet browser (it will start with http://www.aimalaysia.org/index.php?option=com_rd_rss...) and place that URL link into your RSS aggregator program. You have now added an AI Malaysia RSS feed to your aggregator and will receive relevant updates whenever they become available.
