I have put together some answers to some common questions I have been receiving.




What is an RSS?
Really Simple Syndication or “RSS” refers to an alternative way of viewing a webpage. The term RSS is used interchangeably with feed, news feed, and RSS feed.
Websites that change frequently, such as news sites, often have RSS pages. An RSS page presents the titles of new and recent articles in a list, showing a line or two of each article’s content and a link to the full article. You can subscribe to RSS pages and have them appear in an inbox for easy scanning.

1. Choose File > Add RSS Feeds or click the Add (+) button at the bottom of the sidebar, and then choose Add RSS Feeds.

To search feeds you’ve bookmarked in Safari, start typing in the search field. To select from a list of bookmarked feeds, Shift-click to select feeds that are next to each other in the list; Command-click to select feeds that are not next to one another.

3. If you want RSS feeds to be included in your Inbox, click “Show in Inbox.”

4. Click Add.

You can rename an RSS feed you’ve subscribed to. To rename a feed, double-click its name in the sidebar and then type a new name. You can remove a feed from the sidebar; you might want to archive the feed before you delete it. To remove or archive a feed, select it in the sidebar and then choose the Delete Feed or Archive Feed command from the Action pop-up menu (looks like a gear) at the bottom of the sidebar.
