In simple terms it will allow you to subscribe to a feed and have the content of the feed delivered to your inbox. This means that you do not have to install, configure and learn another software application (an “aggregator” in this case) to take advantage of the wealth of timely information available via RSS feeds.

Subscribing to a feed

If the site that you are interested in supports autodiscovery all that you have to do is make a note of the home page address (or copy the address from the addressbar of your browser), go to the subscribe page of RSS:Forward and enter that address (or paste the copied address) into the URL text field and click on “Submit”.

RSS:Forward will then check for the feed location, show you a preview of the feed content and ask for your email address to complete the process.

If the site does not support autodiscovery, you will have to find the URL of the feed itself. This generally involves a bit of messing around with the subscription links on the site.
