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.

Bookmarks in your browser, or access to sites in two clicks

Often, wandering through the network, you visit sites of interest, or specific pages of sites. But, after some time, with difficulty, trying to recall the name of the site again to get the information you want, or file. When you succeed, and you find your favorite page through a search engine, and when not. The more sites you view, the less likely to remember where you something useful found.

Solutions for this problem may be several:

save this page on your computer (File-Save As, choose where to-choose format-Save);

find a site on the domain name in the log browser (if the browser "Opera" - in the Tools-History);

again find the site through a search engine;

save the page in a bookmark / favorite browser;

save the page address in the online bookmarks - icons with links to such projects are in the blog under the article - click and add to favorites ;-) this article.

One of the best decisions I believe the addition of pages in the browser bookmarks.

Works as follows. When you are, in any Internet page, and you want her back then, simply, for example, right now, then a combination of hot keys on the keyboard Ctrl + D. You will form with the addition of pages to bookmark. In it you can change the name of the page to create a thematic folder in bookmarks, add a description. To add a bookmark, click consent (OK, Finish, Save, Add - in different browsers in different ways). All now link to the page will always be available through the tab "Bookmarks / Favorites in your browser.

Through the "Bookmarks" You can also add / create a bookmark, edit them and delete - that is, all control is available. And most important: one click - click on "Bookmarks", and the second - on the title page and, voila, you are on your favorite site.

That's such a simple and convenient tool software viewers of the Internet, many people simply do not know. I, however, he is rescued, as there are many resources online that I often visit or save a bookmark to once go back and look at the update.
