EDN Europe's latest news and features.
EDN Europe's Editor Graham Prophet posts a selection of comments and insights prompted by the many items of industry news and rumour that cross the editorial desk or are gathered on his frequent travels to interviews, press conferences and events around Europe - and further afield - and somehow never find their way to the magazine or the web site, recovering some of the information otherwise lost in the noise level.
What's this RSS thing? How do I use it?
RSS (really simple syndication) allows Web sites to make their most recent content available to you automatically. A program called an RSS reader, or "aggregator," helps you to organize and view the various RSS feeds to which you choose to subscribe. Most feeds (EDN Europe's included) contain a headline, an abstract, and a link to each new item. The power of RSS lies in its ability to bring all of the news and content that interests you into one place. Rather than visiting 10 Web sites, you fire up your reader and quickly see what all of them have published. Then you click through to the articles that you want to read.
Get a reader: To take advantage of RSS feeds, you need an RSS reader/aggregator. Generally, these tools come in two forms: A program that you install on your computer (sometimes integrated into your email program), or a Web-based service. Both Yahoo!, with its
My Yahoo! offering, and Google, with
Google Reader, make it pretty easy to get started, and RSS is now integrated into the latest versions of both Internet Explorer and Firefox.
