Introduction to RSS Feeds
RSS feeds have been defined the new portal towards information! They allow you to have control over news coming from a wide number of websites. In the past, in order to be informed, you had to browse a whole series of different sites, one by one, and possibly only to find that no updated information had been added. Today, you just need to install SiRSS and submit once the sites that most interest you. The software will track each site automatically, creating a sort of newsletter in real time which will convey the updated information of your specific interests.
Not only that! With SiRSS you can listen to multimedia content. The software automatically collects audio files and organizes them by date, category and website. Upon request, you can visit the website from which the information has been collected, in order to get more informations or just to browse the links.
In the manual you will be advised on how to maximize your SiRSS software. Hints and techniques will turn you into a savvy user.
