RSS-feed, what is and what good are they users

Let's talk about another useful tool for obtaining information on the network. Refers to the RSS-feed news sites and blogs, they are the same feeds. Physically - a product of the ad hoc scripts (programs on the sites) are giving out news articles and special information flow. It can export directly to your computer and view it without having to enter the site.


For the user viewing the site looks as follows. The site webmaster places a link to the RSS, often in the form of images, with images of her point, and two arcs that flow from it diagonally to the left bottom and top right. You can also see a button with the words «RSS» or «XML» and, simply, the link with words such as: «RSS-feed", "Subscribe to RSS», «News headlines" and the like.


You are reading an interesting site, and wishing to continue to monitor the publications on it, have the opportunity with one click to connect to the site updates. This may be two possibilities. The first - is to use the capabilities of your browser, then there are programs for browsing the Internet. Second - the use of special programs, aggregators, RSS readers streams, namely the RCC readers.


In the first case you are using the link or button and, using built-in browser capabilities, he will treat the code tape and asked to confirm the subscription. Reaps on "Subscribe". In the case of the browser "Opera", in the top menu tab will appear on "RSS", where you can view the exported news and articles, even without an Internet connection. Later, during the sessions connecting to the network, the browser itself will communicate with a website that broadcast the tape, and will add the news. On adding Article browser will inform you via a pop-up window. Unsubscribe from receiving tape as easy: click "RSS" - "Management ribbons news" - note extra stream - zhmete "Delete" - more and more messages will be downloaded. All described important for program-browser «Opera», which I use for Internet browsing, and advise you. However, for other modern browsers, this process also works in a similar manner.


In the second case, you use additional software. One of the most popular aggregators, export news, there is a program «Feedreader 3". After installing the program to add the news feeds you will need to copy the link address to the tape and opening the program, press F3, and, further, click "OK". Ribbon added, and it can be read in the tab "All news", look for the name of the tape.


Note: In order to copy the link address, it is necessary to put the cursor, press the right mouse button and left-click "Copy link address" ( "Copy Link Location", "Copy Shortcut" - depends on the program viewer).


The second program, which I can recommend - this is "Mozilla Thunderbird". In fact - this is a mail client with the ability to export RSS. It must create an account type "Blogs and news feeds, which also need to set up an account to add a link to the tape. And, similar to viewing emails, you can view and interesting news from the resources on the Internet and in the same program to configure receive emails from your mail service.


Well all, the theory of matter such as is described. We turn to practical use. To start, connect, how some of the above methods, to the flow of my blog: "Sign on news blog on the RSS". Now you can get all articles with commentaries thereto, without going to my site, although I am glad I will see you there :-). I stress that it is all, not just those that I publish a newsletter. Here one moment: at the moment blog articles in the band Lying in full, that I personally, as an active reader of foreign films, more like.


In the network, very often you see a tape with previews of articles, tapes with comments to posts on blogs or tapes only headlines. In any case - to monitor the contents of an interesting site is convenient, and often saves the traffic. Of course not all good sites, unfortunately, have their own newsletter. But all author blogs have a functional, by default, use.

On the installation or upgrade versions of the browser Opera 10.01 Final

For quite a while out version of the Opera browser in the 10 series. But I could not come so you can update your Opera 9.64. But, sooner or later, there comes a moment when the need to make updates. The impetus was the message of a new version of the browser, called Opera 10.01 Final, obtained through RSS-tape news site Power Board. That is, through the publication of this site, I am following software updates. They also found and direct link to download a distribution program with the official site of the Opera. 

Well, the shock was received, and the program file download. But, before you install the new version over the old, I decided to make a backup of current settings and data existing in the viewer. Thus, at every fire.

Save, in this case, you must file with the following information:

- Bookmarks Opera, file «Opera6.adr» (in the version Opera9) or «bookmarks.adr» (in the version Opera10) - your saved favorites web pages - news feeds, file «opera-newsfeeds.opml» (in the version of Opera 9 ), and in versions of Opera 10, is the folder in the directory of e-mail program - a list of RSS-belts, you are subscribed to - contact Opera, file «contacts.adr» - saved by you, contact details for other internet users (created in the menu "Tools") - settings Opera, file «opera6.ini» (a version of Opera 9) or «operaprefs.ini» (a version of Opera 10) - keeps your browser settings (appearance, display panels and so on and etc.) - cookies, file «cookies4.dat» - Cookies store sites, and that it is read here (management is committed to the menu Tools-Advanced-Manage cookies ...). - passwords, file «wand.dat» - passwords to sites that you have stored in your browser (managed from the Tools menu, Advanced, Manage Passwords ...).

In fact, placement, and the name of these files, in versions Opera9.64 Opera10.01 been different. However, as a result, the new version over the old one was good and I did not have to do anything.

The actual determination of necessary files and folders, you can look as follows. In the top menu, click Help-About "in the resulting page, find the section" Paths ", in which both are addresses in the computer to folders Opera. Most of the files in the new version are in the directory "folder Opera: C: \ Documents and Settings \ Admin \ Application Data \ Opera \ Opera», and mail and RSS news feeds in the directory "mail folder: C: \ Documents and Settings \ Admin \ Local Settings \ Application Data \ Opera \ Opera \ mail ». In the old version of this directory: "Folder Opera: C: \ Documents and Settings \ Admin \ Application Data \ Opera \ Opera \ profile \» and the same mail folders: C: \ Documents and Settings \ Admin \ Local Settings \ Application Data \ Opera \ Opera \ mail ». Folder «C: \ Documents and Settings \ Admin \» you do not necessarily called the «Admin», although probably true.

If this folder, you will not see folders «Application Data» and «Local Settings», it means that you have disabled the display of hidden files and folders. This happens if the file or folder, through their "properties" is assigned the hidden attribute. See such files and folders are made as follows: in any folder on your computer, we click on the top menu click "Tools", then "Folder Options" - "View", in the form, looking in the window "Options" settings "Hidden files and folders" , put a click on "Show hidden files and folders" and save the settings click on the button "OK". You want appears mrzhete folder where you copy the necessary files and folders, to keep out of the system drive. After the upgrade, if you update to fail, and the settings and data erased, saved files can be moved to the working folder.

In short, you started Ivan Susanin in the impenetrable jungle of technology:). But it is only necessary to know everything to restore the files with passwords and cookies. Information about this when I had the need to examine the question, I found the relevant article of the site Luzerblog. RSS same and bookmarks are saved and restored much easier by the program.

To save a backup RCC feeds and bookmarks, click on the top menu of your browser click "File". In the menu that opens, click on "Import and Export", is there something you want to back up and export to a backup folder you created in my computer. There you can make the import of data from the saved files after the upgrade program, as well as favorite lists or import mail from other programs.

Summarize what was said. The program for viewing Internet hamlets, browser Opera 10.01 Final, as well as other browsers are gradually becoming "combine" to work on the Internet. It built many useful features: bookmarks, history of visits to internet resources, download manager, rss-reader, email program, and various widgets and so on. Of course we must be able to carry it all between the versions and restore after reinstalling the operating system. I hope this article in this matter will be helpful.

Later in the article, presented a video tutorial about installing or reinstalling the program viewer (browser) Opera version 10.01 final. In lessons analyzed questions: where to download the program and what data should be saved for later recovery program settings, if you're already used to it.
