RSS (Really Simple Syndication) Is Offered by Some Websites to Allow Web Users to Be Alerted When Information Is Updated What is RSS? RSS (Really Simple Syndication) is offered by some websites to allow web users to be alerted when information is updated. Users must subscribe to the website’s RSS feed in order to receive alerts on their desktop or mobile device. Feeds can also be used to deliver media content which you can view on your computer or mobile device. This is referred to as podcasting. How do I need if an RSS feed is available? If feeds are available on a website, the Feeds button will be displayed. How does a feed differ from a website? A feed can have the same content as a webpage, but it's often formatted differently. Why is the Shire using a RSS feed? The Shire has created an RSS feed for when it declares a Harvest and Vehicle Movement Ban. When the ban is declared, information is announced on ABC radio and displayed on the Shire’s main webpage. The RSS feed is another method for people wanting an instant alert. How do I subscribe to an RSS feed? To receive RSS feeds you may need to install an RSS feed reader. In more recent web browsers, feed readers are included as standard features. If you are using Microsoft Outlook or an up to date web browser, refer to the section on Browser Installation Guides below. If you do not already have a feed reader installed in your browser, you may need to install a separate RSS feed reader application. The Shire does not endorse or offer technical support for any third party products, though some commonly used RSS readers are listed below: Windows Microsoft Outlook 2007 or above Internet Explorer 7 and above Firefox Google Chrome FeedReader RSS Reader MAC Safari NewsFire RSS NetNews Wire Mobile (iOS, Android or Windows Mobile) RSS Reader Readers for those with visual impairments Podder .

    Yee et al. The Tablecast Data Publishing Protocol The Tablecast Data Publishing Protocol Ka-Ping Yee Dieterich Lawson Google Medic Mobile [email protected] [email protected] Dominic König Dale Zak Sahana Foundation Medic Mobile [email protected] [email protected] ABSTRACT We describe an interoperability challenge that arose in Haiti, identify the parameters of a general problem in crisis data management, and present a protocol called Tablecast that is designed to address the problem. Tablecast enables crisis organizations to publish, share, and update tables of data in real time. It allows rows and columns of data to be merged from multiple sources, and its incremental update mechanism is designed to support offline editing and data collection. Tablecast uses a publish/subscribe model; the format is based on Atom and employs PubSubHubbub to distribute updates to subscribers. Keywords Interoperability, publish/subscribe, streaming, synchronization, relational table, format, protocol INTRODUCTION After the January 2010 earthquake in Haiti, there was an immediate need for information on available health facilities. Which hospitals had been destroyed, and which were still operating? Where were the newly established field clinics, and how many patients could they accept? Which facilities had surgeons, or dialysis machines, or obstetricians? Aid workers had to make fast decisions about where to send the sick and injured— decisions that depended on up-to-date answers to all these questions. But the answers were not readily at hand. The U. S. Joint Task Force began a broad survey to assess the situation in terms of basic needs, including the state of health facilities. The UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) was tasked with monitoring and coordinating the actions of the many aid organizations that arrived to help.

  • Open Search Environments: the Free Alternative to Commercial Search Services
    Open Search Environments: The Free Alternative to Commercial Search Services. Adrian O’Riordan ABSTRACT Open search systems present a free and less restricted alternative to commercial search services. This paper explores the space of open search technology, looking in particular at lightweight search protocols and the issue of interoperability. A description of current protocols and formats for engineering open search applications is presented. The suitability of these technologies and issues around their adoption and operation are discussed. This open search approach is especially useful in applications involving the harvesting of resources and information integration. Principal among the technological solutions are OpenSearch, SRU, and OAI-PMH. OpenSearch and SRU realize a federated model to enable content providers and search clients communicate. Applications that use OpenSearch and SRU are presented. Connections are made with other pertinent technologies such as open-source search software and linking and syndication protocols. The deployment of these freely licensed open standards in web and digital library applications is now a genuine alternative to commercial and proprietary systems. INTRODUCTION Web search has become a prominent part of the Internet experience for millions of users. Companies such as Google and Microsoft offer comprehensive search services to users free with advertisements and sponsored links, the only reminder that these are commercial enterprises. Businesses and developers on the other hand are restricted in how they can use these search services to add search capabilities to their own websites or for developing applications with a search feature. The closed nature of the leading web search technology places barriers in the way of developers who want to incorporate search functionality into applications.

  • Working with Feeds, RSS, and Atom
    CHAPTER 4 Working with Feeds, RSS, and Atom A fundamental enabling technology for mashups is syndication feeds, especially those packaged in XML. Feeds are documents used to transfer frequently updated digital content to users. This chapter introduces feeds, focusing on the specific examples of RSS and Atom. RSS and Atom are arguably the most widely used XML formats in the world. Indeed, there’s a good chance that any given web site provides some RSS or Atom feed—even if there is no XML-based API for the web site. Although RSS and Atom are the dominant feed format, other formats are also used to create feeds: JSON, PHP serialization, and CSV. I will also cover those formats in this chapter. So, why do feeds matter? Feeds give you structured information from applications that is easy to parse and reuse. Not only are feeds readily available, but there are many applications that use those feeds—all requiring no or very little programming effort from you. Indeed, there is an entire ecology of web feeds (the data formats, applications, producers, and consumers) that provides great potential for the remix and mashup of information—some of which is starting to be realized today. This chapter covers the following: * What feeds are and how they are used * The semantics and syntax of feeds, with a focus on RSS 2.0, RSS 1.0, and Atom 1.0 * The extension mechanism of RSS 2.0 and Atom 1.0 * How to get feeds from Flickr and other feed-producing applications and web sites * Feed formats other than RSS and Atom in the context of Flickr feeds * How feed autodiscovery can be used to find feeds * News aggregators for reading feeds and tools for validating and scraping feeds * How to remix and mashup feeds with Feedburner and Yahoo! Pipes Note In this chapter, I assume you have an understanding of the basics of XML, including XML namespaces and XML schemas.

  • Creating a Podcast with an RSS Feed GCAST
    Creating a Podcast with an RSS feed Now that you've taken the online course that pertains to your platform, it's time to make a podcast of your own. Consult the rubric for the guidelines for your podcast. When you have completed your podcast, it's time to upload it to your page. You will need two documents to complete this portion of the assignment: 1. Converting your podcast to an MP3 2. Uploading a podcast to a webpage When you have inserted your audio file in your webpage, please upload it to your teachers.henrico folder. Wikipedia defines a podcast as: A podcast is a digital media file, or a series of such files, that is distributed over the Internet using syndication feeds, for playback on portable media players and personal computers.[1] A podcast is a specific type of webcast which, like 'radio', can mean either the content itself or the method by which it is syndicated; the latter is also termed podcasting. The host or author of a podcast is often called a podcaster. The term "podcast" is a portmanteau of the name of Apple's portable music player, the iPod, and broadcast; a pod refers to a container of some sort and the idea of broadcasting to a container or pod describes the process of podcasting. You have successfully created an audio file and attached it to your webpage but a podcast is not a podcast until it can be subscribed to via RSS. RSS stands for Really Simple Syndication. An RSS feed allows you to subscribe to podcasts, music, video- lots of things that you enjoy.

  • Free Podcasting with Archive.Org/Wordpress If Any of This Doesn’T Work for Some Reason, Feel Free to Contact Me Via the Contact Page of My Website
    Free Podcasting with Archive.org/Wordpress If any of this doesn’t work for some reason, feel free to contact me via the contact page of my website. PART A: Uploading audio to Archive.org 1. Make an archive.org account. 2. Upload the audio for one episode with whatever title/description/tag you want. 3. Once the audio is uploaded, edit the metadata and include a custom field entitled "enclosure" that you then put the link to the MP3 of the audio in that enclosure field, which you can find on the audio's page on Archive.org. (View of the audio page on Archive.org) (View of the enclosure tag in the editing metadata section) PART B: Creating RSS feed with Wordpress 1. Make a Wordpress account and a new free Wordpress site (www.yoursitename.wordpress.com). 2. Go to www.yoursitename.wordpress.com/wp-admin. On the sidebar, go to Posts > Categories and make a new category new called "Podcast". 3. On the sidebar again, go to Settings > Media and there will be a section called "Podcasting". Fill this out with the information about your podcast, including title, thumbnail, etc. This is the podcast XML data that iTunes, etc. need to show your podcast on their site. Make sure you select "Podcast" as the "Category to set as feed." This is how Wordpress knows to make an RSS feed out of your podcast posts only. Now your XML and RSS feed is set up and you just need to populate it with posts (aka episodes). 4. On the sidebar, go to Posts > Add New.
