You can subscribe to the latest TTU news quickly and easily using RSS feeds - this means you can have TTU headline stories and announcements automatically delivered to your desktop.
RSS, which stands for Really Simple Syndication, allows users to choose TTU News feeds in a simple, organized and timely manner.
RSS feeds are free to all web users, but you must use a browser that provides an RSS reader or you must download an RSS aggregator in order to subscribe to TTU News. Internet Explorer is one browser that requires an aggregator. RSS allows you to review the headlines and decide which stories to read, without having to surf the Web or scan through multiple pages of a favorite site for news. Firefox users can automatically sign up to receive RSS feeds by clicking the orange icon XML logo at the top of this screen. The new Mac browser Safari RSS, which will be included in the soon-to-be released Mac OS X 10.4 "Tiger," also will have automatic RSS capability built in. If you do not use either of these browsers and prefer to view TTU's RSS news feeds with an aggregator, paste this URL into your aggregator or reader: http://www.tntech.edu/publicaffairs/rss/ttu_press_releases.xml
Free RSS aggregators include: RssReader, Sage, SharpReader and Bloglines.
The first step, as described below, is to choose an RSS reader. Each reader has a slightly different way of adding a new feed (also called a "channel"). In most cases, here's how it works:
You should be all set! The RSS feed will start to display and regularly update the headlines for you.
