Tennis News RSS Feeds
Posted by Aaress Lawless on Oct 3, 2008 | Print |
The Sony Ericsson WTA Tour has added another section to its official website—RSS feeds.
If you want up-to-the minute tennis updates, RSS (Really Simple Syndication) is the best method to use.
Instead of requiring you to check a website manually, a RSS (also known as XML) feed will “ping” your feed reader of choice to let you know quickly when the site has been updated.
You can subscribe to a feed by entering the feed’s link into the reader or by clicking a RSS icon in a browser that launches the subscription process. The reader will check your subscribed feeds regularly for new content, and will then automatically download any updates that it finds.
There are many types of RSS aggregation programs available for PC and MAC users, but the most popular are web-based Google Reader and Bloglines.
Like all growing sports, tennis is taking advantage of the newest technology to reach its fans. Below you will find several RSS feeds to get you started in your new pursuit. Simply click on the link or copy the RSS link into your feed reader’s subscription box.
