Here’s a tip for those of you not familiar with RSS and feeds. RSS is a format for distributing and gathering content from sources across the Web that is easily read through a reader like My Yahoo!. So next time you happen upon a site that you might like to check on occasion, give it a try.

Add an RSS feed from the site to your page:
• Follow the instructions on the site to locate the feed URL (look for the RSS icon) and copy it.
• In My Yahoo!, go to Personalize this page > Content: Add RSS Feed > Paste the URL and click Add.

The content will be added to the top left of your page.

Feeds are not always updated, I recently had the same items on a BBC news feed for about 3 weeks

Items appear in some random order, it appears (and seems logical that) they are ordered by time but that is not the case.

Other feed readers allow feeds that Yahoo doesn’t, there is porbably a reason for it – but it’s not obvious to me

I found a draw back with RSS that we need to ping RSS reader site again to get new news on Feed.

Can anyone tell me is it Ok or any other process to solve my problems.

Thanx

Raj
