RSS for MIT Web Publishers.

Date: Thursday, September 23, 2004
Time: Noon - 1 pm
Location: N42 Demo Center

Overview:
Sean Brown from IS&T will discuss RSS: Really Simple Syndication, a web 
content syndication format. You can use RSS feeds to provide your web site 
with constantly updated information from other web sites, such as the MIT 
News Office, MITWorld, The New York Times, etc. You can also publish RSS 
feeds for incorporation by others.

Sean will explain what RSS is and how to use it. The discussion will 
include news readers, aggregators, re-purposing content via RSS, as well as 
creating and updating your own RSS news feed.

You can learn more about RSS online from
