When things are changing quickly, it can be frustrating to “chase the news” - you’d rather it came to you. But you don’t want just any news – you want the news which interests you.
That’s what RSS will do. When there’s news to report, you’ll be automatically alerted.
Newsfeeds will keep you up-to-date on various categories of news including press releases, podcasts, newspaper headlines and meeting dates/times.
It simple and it’s effective. But, to make it work, you need a special RSS program on your computer. There are lots of RSS programs you can download in just a minute or two, and many are free.
Once you have an RSS/news reader, all you have to do is click on the RSS button and copy & paste the URL from the browser into your newsreader. This will subscribe you to the 'stanstedexplained' newsfeed.
