Keep up to date with this blog

There are several ways for you to keep up to date with new posts on this blog:

1) Subscribe to the blog using an RSS feed

RSS what?
RSS usually stands for Really Simple Syndication and is a web feed format used to publish updates/new entries of web content such as blogs (like mine), websites, podcasts - basically any website where the RSS button is live. (The picture at the top is what the RSS button looks like when live.) The feed will contain a summary of the newest content of the site or the full text (if it is short). RSS enables you keep up to date with websites without having to type each URL in or go directly to the website

Your internet Explorer should be able to collect RSS feeds if next to the picture of the house (for the homepage) you can see the orange RSS button.

click on the images to enlarge them

Click on the button and then on Subscribe now - your feed will lie in your Favourites folder, you can make sub folders to organise your feeds

Your RSS feeds will lie in the Favourites folder (the little yellow star at the top of your screen) - when you click on RSS feeds the websites with new content will be highlighted in bold.

You then simply click on the feed to view the newest stories - if you need more information or want to read the whole article, simply click on the article title

You can also use the RSS feed button directly on my blog (see pic below)

2) Subscribe to the direct emailing service
Simply click on the email subscription link on my blog, each time I put a new entry up you will receive an email with the details.

3) Read my weekly (sometimes bi-weekly) update emails
