What is RSS?
RSS is an easy way for you to keep updated automatically on websites you
like. Instead of you having to go to websites to see if they've written
a new article or feature, you can use RSS (which stands for Really Simple
Syndication) to get them to tell you every time they have something new.
WPCVA.com now offers RSS feeds (or channels)
for most of its sections, eg local news, sports, Probe, etc.
How can I make use of RSS?
In general you need to get hold of a program called a News Reader. This
displays RSS information feeds from your chosen websites on your computer.
All you then have to do is choose which RSS feeds you want for instance,
an RSS feed of all the latest Sports news from The WPCVA.

How can I sign up to RSS feeds
from the WPCVA Online?
Go to the section of WPCVA.com with the headlines you are interested
in (eg World). Click on the link that says 'Syndicate this!' at the bottom
of the page.
You then need to follow the
instructions for your particular News Reader in order to add this XML
feed to your RSS list.
However, generally speaking, you copy or enter the url (page address)
of the RSS feed page into your news reader.
Here are the WPCVA.com pages which are available for syndication
