How do I Use an RSS Feed from another website to contact me when something is available?
I am connected to wiitracker.com and they have an automatic notification when a wii becomes available and I do not understand exactly how to use the rss feed. When I click on it this is what comes up <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?> - <rss version="2.0"> - <channel> - <image> <url>http://wiitracker.com/logo.jpg</url> <title>Nintendo Wii Tracker</title> <link>http://wiitracker.com/</link> </image> <title>Nintendo Wii Tracker</title> <description>BensBargains Nintendo Wii Tracker Real-Time Stock Tracker</description> <link>http://wiitracker.com/</link> <language>en-us</language> <copyright>Copyright BensBargains.net LLC</copyright> - <item> <title>Nintendo Wii Tracker reports no stock at this time</title> <link>http://wiitracker.com/</link> <guid>http://wiitracker.com/</guid> <pubDate>Tue, 4 Dec 2007 07:40:46 -0800</pubDate> </item> </channel> </rss> WHAT DO I DO NOW?

- You need to use an RSS reader service to conveniently get these updates. There's a number of them out there, but as an example, you can use a "My Yahoo" page. You'd click on "Add content", then choose "Add RSS by URL." Just copy and paste the URL to the feed you want, and then everytime you go your "My Yahoo" page you'll see any new content. If you don't want to use My Yahoo, just do a search on RSS readers to find a different one.
- There are readers available for reading RSS. Browsers like Firefox is very helpful for work with RSS. Just Bookmark your RSS link on the Browser and the browser will automatically fetch the results.. You can see a default RSS (Latest Headlines) integrated with the browser. Use the lastes Firefox version and Enjoy...
