RRS Feeds Explained
What are RSS feeds?
News feeds (also referred to as RSS - Really Simple Syndication) are a way of finding out when websites have added new content of interest to you without having to go look for it yourself.
At TipaTipa we have added an RSS feed to our listings search engine so you can find out when new listings of interest to you have been added. All you need to do is carry out a search that returns results for the sort of items you are interested in and then click on the RSS feed link at the top right of the page.
What do I need to use RSS feeds?
In order to receive RSS feeds you need a news reader. There are different types of news readers including ones that are browser-based, web-based or you can download software to your computer.
