What is RSS?

RSS stands for "Really Simple Syndication" and is a format for distributing and gathering content from sources across the Web, including newspapers, magazines, and web sites like this one.

RSS feeds (or news feeds) are a way for sites to syndicate frequently updated content which users can subscribe to. RSS allows you to see when sites from all over the internet have added new content. You can get the latest headlines and articles in one place, as soon as they are published, without having to remember to visit each site every day.

The European Council for Plasticisers and Intermediates (ECPI) is now offering an RSS feed of this website to provide an easy way to keep you up-to-date on developments related to BBP.

How can I use RSS?

The first thing you need is something called a news reader. This is a piece of software that checks RSS feeds and lets you read any new articles that have been added to them.

There are many different versions, some of which are accessed using a browser, and some of which are downloadable applications. Browser-based news readers let you catch up with your RSS feed subscriptions from any computer, whereas downloadable applications let you store them on your main computer, in the same way that you either download your e-mail using Outlook, or keep it on a web-based service like Hotmail.

Some of the most popular news readers include:

For Windows:

• Newz Crawler
• FeedDemon
• Awasu

For Macintosh

• Newsfire Net
• NewsWire

Web -based:

• My Yahoo!
• NewsGator

Others can be found on Google. Once you have chosen a news reader, all you will need to point it to this website:
