Here is a link to my album. Here is a direct link to the slideshow. I decided to embed the slideshow onto this post just to see how it would look like. I also include the link to the album itself. EDIT: the embedded above must be manually scrolled. The direct link will bring you the actual slideshow that automatically goes through all the pictures.

How Companies Use RSS

-
Really simple syndication was originally used by ordinary citizens wanting specific topics of news. Instead of a web user going out to each website and manually checking for new posts, an RSS acts like a news delivery system, bringing more convenience to readers in one place.  But as time passed, RSS has found itself usefulness in the workplace as well. An RSS feed can essentially reduce the amount of email that needs to be sent. Instead a company can host, within an internal network, a company blog.
