RSS Newsfeed and Notices of Web Site Updates

Instructions on adding a newsfeed to your News Reader or aggregator

Using your mouse, right click on the XML orange graphic.   RSS Newsfeed and Notices of Web Site Updates

In Microsoft's Internet Explorer browser select "copy shortcut" and for Netscape's and Firefox's browsers select "Copy Link Location" from the pop-up menu that appears. Launch your browser based news aggregator or news reader application and paste the newsfeed URL into an "add new feed" window.

If you don't have the required news aggregator or news reader software you can use an Internet Web site such as Bloglines to collect your newsfeeds. Detailed instructions on how to add newsfeeds are included in the news reader application that you choose. When news items are published by CSIS through the Newsroom publishing and distribution system your news reader/aggregator will let you know through a small pop-up window or other alert device. If you close your news reader/aggregator, you will not be advised of updates until the next time you open it. Unlike e-mail subscriptions, you are not required to provide personal information or an e-mail address to benefit from receiving news from the CSIS Newsroom.

What is RSS?

Rich Site Summary (RSS) or as some refer to it, Real Simple Syndication, is an XML-based format for content distribution in real time. CSIS Newsroom feeds will include the date, title, summary and a link to the full news article. If after reading a summary you want to view the full text, simply link to the full text document found on the Newsroom Web site.

News aggregators / News readers

There are numerous RSS news aggregators / news readers available for free download or for purchase on the Internet.
