  • Alright, so right now, you’re either going “YES, FINALLY!” or “What the hell is an RSS feed?”. Well, let’s answer that question for ya.
    RSS (or Really Simple Syndication) feeds are free content feeds from Web sites, like this one, that contain article headlines, summaries and links back to
    full-text articles on the site. So, with the use of an RSS reader on your system, you can receive News Askew headlines as soon as they are posted. Up to
    our last TEN! Then, ya click the headline, and BOOM, you’ve got the story. Pretty dang cool, eh?

To start using RSS, you need a special news reader or aggregator that displays RSS content feeds from Web sites you select. There are many different news readers available, many of which are free of charge. Most are available as desktop software that you download and install on your computer. Several Web-based news readers are available as well. Yahoo and Google both have lists of tons of ‘em. They’re pretty much all free, too. Once you have set up your news reader, you simply subscribe to the RSS content feeds you want.

To get the feed, point your RSS reader to THIS ADDRESS: http://www.newsaskew.com/rss/news.xml. We’ll set up a formal link in the sidebar to this soon.

This is convenient for you, and great for us as a whole, as it allows a ton of other sites that syndicate RSS to pick up News Askew. Spreading the word even
further across the galaxy. So, if you know of such a site, be sure and recommend News Askew to them. Let’s get the word out there!

Alright, now KEEP READING, cuz there’s an update of news just ahead, and there were ALSO newsbites posted before the April Fools joke. Read back and make
sure you didn’t miss nuthin!
