Newsfeeds

What are newsfeeds?

Newsfeeds alert users to new content from the GSDRC document library without them having to visit the website.

How do I use them?

You will need a ‘newsreader’ which is a piece of software that checks for new content and displays it. Most readers can be downloaded free from the internet. Note that current webbrowsers can read newsfeeds directly, without needing a newsreader.

Here are some links to newsreaders:

NewzCrawler (PC)
AmphetaDesk (PC, Mac, Linux)
NetNewsWire (Mac OS X 10.1)
FeedReader (PC)
Userland Radio (PC or Mac)
Headline Viewer (PC)
Aggie News (PC)

Once it is installed, you simply choose the newsfeeds you want to receive from the list below. In order to install it, click on the appropriate orange button below and either drag or cut and paste the URL of the feed into the news reader.
