About that RSS logo...
| You will find many variations of the RSS logo across the internet -- different shapes, different colors, with "RSS" or "XML" -- but they all tell you the same thing: RSS technology powers the website with the publisher's news. RSS gives people the way to be notified whenever new information is posted on the website as selected by the website publisher, so they don 't have to hunt across the site looking for updates, or for that matter, even remember to check back at the website. Site visitors take advantage of RSS by subscribing to feeds, better yet, by registering for email alerts call "pings" to be rapidly notified by email when items are posted. Website publishers use Enfeedia as their one-stop RSS feed publishing system because of its ease of use— and feature set. If you publish a website, sign up for an account and begin publishing your news directly on your site. Site visitors will appreciate you providing a simple means for them to be kept informed. It's the perfect way to establish customer loyalty!

of tools for subscribing to the feed, setting up alerts for the feed,
and sharing the feed either as a complete feed or on an item by item basis,
etc.. Where otherwise ambiguous, this icon will be followed by the feed
