How do you keep track of the latest on your favorite websites?
Visit every now and then? That would be what most of you are doing. Well, that is time consuming.
Second option is to subscribe to RSS feeds so that you can have a quick view of the latest headlines on your favorite websites. See those little orange icons labelled XML, RSS, ATOM ? That again does work with everyone since it involves using a feed reader. And I don’t like it.
So what’s the best way?
The best way today is to have RSS feeds delivered right in your inbox. So how can you do this? Simple, very simple. Thanks to such free services from Feeblitz, Feedburner etc.
If you see a box like that one you find below “Search” in this blog, use that. If not here’s how you do it using Feedblitz. You can easily subscribe any website that has RSS feed
1) Go to feedblitz.com
2) At the bottom of the page, enter the url of the website you want to subscribe
3) Follow the onscreen instruction
Those of you who subscribe to misual.com, how do you like it? If you haven’t, you can do so here:
Currently, full content is not enabled. If desired, it can be enabled.
Pro-bloggers such as Amit Agarwal and Liew CF advocate making email subscription available and as easy as possible.
Now, what if your favorite website does not have RSS feed? Don’t worry, there’s a way out. I’ll cover that in another post.

– Knowing that, I linked terms used (RSS feed, feed reader) to answers.com page where the term is explained. Moreover if you speak English and know how to use Google, you shouldnt have any problem finding what at term means.
