RSS Feeds from Shop Western Oregon

1. What are RSS Feeds ?
   RSS feeds allow you to see when websites have added new content. The feeds themselves are just web pages, designed to be read by computers rather than people. With Shop Western Oregon RSS feeds, you can get the latest updates to the local advertisers featured on this site as soon as they are published, even when you are browsing other sites.
2. How do I start using feeds?
   In order to utilize Shop Western Oregon's RSS feeds, you will need something called a news reader. This is a piece of software that checks the feeds and lets you read any new information that has been added. Although most up-to-date browsers are enabled with this function, there is a range of different news readers available for download as external applications as well. Browser-based news readers let you catch up with your RSS feed subscriptions from any computer, whereas downloadable applications let you store them on your main computer, in the same way that you either download your e-mail using Outlook, or keep it on a web-based service like Hotmail. Be aware that certain downloaded news readers may only work on specific operating systems, so you will need to choose one that will work with your computer.
   
   To subscribe to our feeds, simply click any tab featuring the orange RSS button on the left hand navigation bar. You can subscribe to the feed in various ways, including by dragging the URL of the feed into your news reader or by cutting and pasting the same URL into a new feed in your news reader. Most sites that offer feeds use a similar orange button, but some may just have a normal web link. Some browsers, including Firefox, Opera and Safari, automatically check for feeds for you when you visit a website, and display an icon when they find one. This can make subscribing to feeds much easier. For more details on these, please check their websites.
