About
USJFCOM News Feeds
What
is RSS?
RSS
or Rich Site Syndication (also 'Really Simple Syndication) feeds are free content
feeds from web sites that contain headlines, summaries and links to the
full page on the web site.
The
main U.S. Joint Forces Command News Feed updates every
time there is a new news story regarding the command's
many efforts.
We
have also created specialized news feeds focused at specific
areas of USJFCOM's efforts to lead the transformation of
the U.S. military.
How do I use RSS?
Special
news readers, called 'news aggregators' are required for
you to be able to use RSS feeds.
We
do not endorse a particular reader, you can locate RSS
readers
via Web search engines.
There
are also several reviews of the various news aggregators
available.
Why use RSS?
RSS
provides an easy way to gather a wide variety of content
in one place on your computer.
Rather
than having to visit many Web sites to find out if there
is
new content,
the RSS agregator shows it all to you in one screen.
Many
RSS readers also 'alert' you when new content from your
favorite web site is delivered.
RSS also has the
potential for replacing email lists.
