How to Use the XML Feeds
You can download a news reader application like NewsGator for Windows or Shrook for the Mac. Many news readers can auto detect XML feeds on a webpage and offer you the option of subscribing to the feeds that were found. Alternatively, you can copy and paste the URL of any of our XML feeds into the text entry field of your news reader’s “subscribe” feature. Also, many web browsers (Eg. Firefox) now (or soon will) offer the ability to subscribe to and view XML feeds directly in the browser.
