The BBC Introduces Their RSS Feeds To Mom And Dad

The Feed Factory: RSS. Made Really Simple

A nice overview of what feeds are, what they contain, and what you can do with them written for the general BBC audience. Done well, its missing details of one important step—helping people actually get an app running somewhere handling the feeds you can now find.

The BBC does not have its own feed reader, but there are lots of different sites which review and recommend various readers. If you search for “feed finder” or “RSS reader” in your search engine, you will find some of the more popular ones.

While there are a great number of readers, aggregation sites, and browsers that handle subscriptions to sites it still feels like there was a chunk missing out of this otherwise good presentation.
