Subscribe to BrailleSC.org via RSS

RSS IconRSS, or Really Simple Syndication, is a way by which readers of various websites can subscribe to updates from websites they read often. RSS has two main parts, first is the software on your computer, second is the RSS file (known as the “RSS Feed”) on a website that you want to subscribe to. Once you install RSS software on your computer, you can subscribe to different websites to ensure you always get the latest articles from the websites. Every time you open the RSS software on your computer, it will check the feeds of all the websites to which you subscribe, then download all of the latest articles right to your computer. This means that you don’t have to manually check for the latest news on each of your favorite websites, because those articles will get downloaded for you automatically.

There are many RSS readers out there, most of which are free. Here are a few of our recommendations:
