My Rehovot Feeds for Thought

Did you notice My Rehovot has a feed? Not sure what a "feed" is? If so, you may be missing an important new web information experience. An increasing number of users are using feed readers to keep up to date with their favorite websites. Many online publishers work hard to create quality content, and feeds help them grow their audience as well as let their current readers take a site with them wherever they go.

Google Reader and the Google Personalized Homepage are examples of feed readers that allow users to keep track of updates to their favorite web sites.

My Rehovot is an example of web sites which also offer feeds: we publish feeds with the latest posts.

There are many resources online to help publishers implement feeds on their site. We employ Atom and RSS, the two standards compatible with most feed readers.

We encourage you to take a look at Google pages on Google Reader and the Google Personalized Homepage, to make the most of My Rehovot feeds. If you have any questions, please get in touch via email. Internet publishers may also wish to review Google tips for feed publishers.
