What is RSS?

RSS (Really Simple Syndication or Rich Site Summary) is a format for delivering summaries of regularly changing web content. RSS helps web users to stay informed by retrieving summaries of the latest content from the sites they are interested in.

In order to read RSS you'll need Feed Reader or News Aggregator software which allows you to grab the RSS feeds and read them when they are automatically updated. Mozilla Thunderbird, an email client and popular alternative to Outlook Express, has one built in, or there's Sharp Reader, a simple, free RSS reader. If you have a Yahoo account, click on "Get Feed RSS" at my.yahoo.com.

All you need to do is add the location of Asia Times Online's feed, [ http://www.atimes.net/feed/rss/menu-id-1.html ], to your reader software. You'll get our headlines, updated daily, and can click on them to access the full text of the articles on our website.
