RSS Instructions

What is RSS?
RSS (Really Simple Syndication) is an easy way to get the BorderSense blog whenever it is updated - even if you forget to visit the BorderSense web site. BorderSense provides updated headline feeds from our blog page and delivers them directly to your desktop news reader.

How can I use RSS?
There are several ways to access RSS feeds. You can install a news reader that displays RSS feeds from the Web sites you select. Like an email program or a Web browser, the news reader serves as a kind of information portal, and provides a real-time interface to the feeds you select. Once the RSS reader is set up to access the BorderSense web site, it will continually poll our RSS feed for the latest blog. A number of free and commercial news readers are available for download. Popular news readers include RSS Bandit, Feed Demon and Bloglines. Find a News Reader application here.

Browser Support
Newer versions of Firefox, Safari, Opera, and Internet Explorer (7.x) support RSS feeds without installing a separate news reader program.

After installing the news reader or an updated web browser, you can add the feed manually by clicking on the "RSS" orange button below.
