    What is RSS? 

    RSS enables you to easily stay informed of new content on websites, as soon as it has been published.

Websites that offer RSS usually display RSS icons: RSS icon or RSS icon

    Using an RSS reader

    MSFHR News Feed:
    RSS icon http://feeds.feedburner.com/MSFHRnews

    MSFHR Podcasts Feed:

    There are other methods of subscribing to RSS feeds that vary according to the RSS reader and browser you are using. It is also easy to unsubscribe from feeds. Follow the instructions for subscribing and unsubscribing in your RSS reader.

    Read items delivered through the MSFHR RSS feed

    When an item arrives in your RSS reader, you see a headline and either a summary of the item or the entire item. Clicking on the headline brings you to full text about the item on the MSFHR website. You can adjust the settings in your RSS reader to control how often the reader checks for updates and how it displays content.
