Joint Chiefs of Staff News Feeds

What is RSS?

RSS or Rich Site Syndication (also 'Really Simple Syndication) feeds are free content feeds from web sites that contain headlines, summaries and links to the full page on the web site.

How do I use RSS?

Special news readers, called 'news aggregators' are required for you to be able to use RSS feeds. Many of the current Web Browsers also offer RSS Feed reading and subscription capability by simply clicking on a link to the RSS feed. We do not endorse a particular reader, you can locate RSS readers via web search engines such as Google or Yahoo. There are also several reviews of the various news aggregators available.

Why use RSS?

RSS is an easy way to gather a wide variety of content in one place on your computer. Rather than having to visit many web sites to find out if there is new content, the RSS agregator shows it all to you in one screen. Many RSS readers also 'alert' you when new content from your favorite web site is delivered. RSS also has the potential for replacing email lists.

How can I sign up for RSS feeds from JCS.mil?
