What are Web Feeds?

Web Feeds, also commonly known as RSS (Really Simple Syndication), are an easy touse method for news content distribution. Through a simple XML file on the host site, RSS feeds allow you to read through the news headlines you want, from your desktop, without having to browse the Web.

RSS feeds can be read using newsreader software (or a Web-based newsreader platform) called an RSS Reader (also called a “news aggregator”) to easily see when new content is added to our site. RSS is now also built into e-mail clients such as Microsoft Office 2007, and can be viewed by Web browsers such as Internet Explorer 7 and Firefox.

You can also syndicate our feed to have CBA.org headlines appear on your Web site. For more information on displaying feeds, visit http://www.rss2html.com/.
