What does RSS do?

The Coventry First RSS feed allows members to be kept informed when new information is added to our web site. You can get the latest updates as soon as they are published, without having to remember to visit each site every day. It takes the hassle out of staying up-to-date, by showing you the very latest information that you are interested in. RSS stands for 'Really Simple Syndication'.

How do I start using the RSS feed?

You will need a news reader - this is software that checks RSS feeds and lets you read any new articles that have been added to them. There are many different versions, some of which are accessed using a browser, and some of which you download to your PC. Browser-based news readers let you catch up with your RSS feed subscriptions from any computer, whereas downloadable applications let you store them on your PC.

Here are some popular news readers you can use:

To subscribe to our feed, try dragging the RSS icon below into your news reader

Alternatively you can copy and paste this URL directly into your news reader:
http://www.coventryfirst.co.uk/rss.php

Some modern browsers, including Firefox, Opera and Safari, automatically check for RSS feeds for you when you visit a website, and display an RSS icon when they find one. Click the icon to view the RSS updates. This can make subscribing to RSS feeds much easier. For more details on these, please check their websites.
