What the Dickens is RSS?

RSS stands for Really Simple Syndication and it is the ideal way to receive the latest news from LargeOutdoors!  Our updated website content is delivered directly to your computer in an easily and manageable way.  It's a clever bit of kit, and is pretty common now on lots of web pages.

Any site, like ours, that displays the RSS logo will be able to provide a constantly updated source of news and information delivered to your computer (email or web browser) using a piece of software called an aggregator, or an RSS Reader.  

This reader will check the LargeOutdoors website several times a day for any new content and notify you about any changes there have been!  This means that you don't have to spend time revisiting our site looking for new event diary listings or updates about any currently listed events.

The RSS reader will display the headlines and a brief synopsis of anything new that it's found – allowing you to decide whether it's something that's of interest to you....click on the delivered update to read about it in more detail back on the LargeOutdoors website...simples!

So how do you get started using RSS with LargeOutdoors?

You will need to download an RSS reader, many of which are free.  Your computer may already have an RSS reader installed.

If it hasn't then Readers you could try include RSS Reader, Sharp Reader, NewsGator and Feedreader.  You will be able to find all of these – and many more – via any internet search engine.

You need to ensure that you have your RSS reader installed to display the feed correctly on your computer.  If you don’t have an RSS reader, clicking on the RSS button will merely display a page of code (gobbledegook!).

Go on try it, and that event you've been looking for might just arrive in your in box!
