In a world with constant new streams of information, RSS (which stands for 'Really Simple Syndication') 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.

Natives RSS feeds allow you to stay up to date with the latest news and snow reports from Natives. You can either subscribe to our RSS feed, or put it on your own website.

HOW DO I START USING RSS?

To subscribe to RSS, you will need a News Reader or other similar device. This is a piece of software that checks RSS feeds and lets you read any new articles that have been added.

Once you have chosen your News Reader, you can subscribe to the Natives RSS feed in a number of ways, including the following:

• Drag the orange RSS button into your News Reader
• Drag the URL of the RSS feed into your News Reader
• Cut and paste the URL of the RSS feed into your News Reader
  

How do I get a News Reader?
There are a variety of readers available. Some of the most common are Newzcrawler, Newsgator, My Yahoo! and Newsfire (Mac).

USE NATIVES RSS ON YOUR OWN SITE

For webmasters...
If you would like to add Natives RSS to your site, please choose from one of the two examples below, which you are welcome to cut and paste from the source of this page into your own site. Brief explanations are provided here for those who are more technically minded...

1. The example on the left uses client side JavaScript to load the 5 most recent news headlines into your HTML document. It uses the JavaScript in the file rss_viewer.js, combined with a div with ID 'writeXML' and a body onload action of importXML().
2. The example of the right uses an inline frame (an IFRAME) combined with XSLT to show the headlines striaght from the RSS feed. All it needs is the RSS URL in the IFRAME (in this case '/do/ecco.py/rssview?codes=news/current/'). We've also added a scroller too, which is controlled by the JavaScript in the file rss_scroller.js, combined with a body onload action of 'start_scrolling();'.
