The resident trainer in the Division of Information Technology is Kim Rant. Lucky for me as a new employee, Kim works in the cubicle directly across from me in Client Support. As Kim was researching how to create five-minute training videos, she happened across this fun piece called "RSS in Plain English." It helps explain Really Simple Syndication. As editor of this blog, I immediately deemed it BLOG-WORTHY. Here’s the clip:
We thought this would be informative to share with all of you out there who have not yet jumped on the RSS bus. It is still a relatively new technology, but just think…you can now get all the latest content from your favorite Web sites without having to actually visit those sites!
As you can see on the right-hand side of this blog, we are utilizing RSS in Client Support by providing a feed to our weekly news alerts which are posted on our Web site’s main page: http://clientsupport.stonybrook.edu/
You can subscribe by clicking the RSS Feed button in the top right corner of our site’s main page.
You can also subscribe to our blog’s RSS feed, found right here on our blog’s front page (bottom right corner). Receive our latest posts or comments - it’s up to you!
