Setting up an RSS Feed

This is an article from this month’s ACS Technologies eNews.
RSS stands for Really Simple Syndication and it lets you automatically receive blog posts without having to visit a Website to view them.  Most people choose to view RSS feeds from their email or through a reader. To use a reader, you must subscribe to it before you can sign up for the RSS feed. Most readers are free, but some may have a nominal cost.
If you don’t use a reader but might be interested in using one, we’re sharing a few of the more popular ones to check out. This is not an exhaustive list, so if you don’t find one you like, search for other alternatives.

Just for Apple products

To help you, we’ve included steps for both email and reader sign-up geared to setting up a feed for the ACS Technologies blog.
