About RSS technology
RSS (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RSS_feed) is a communication system that allows users to subscribe to their favorite websites. The first version of RSS, was created by Netscape in 1999.

Technically, RSS (Really Simple Syndication) is a web format used to transmit frequently updated web content from news media, medical journals and blogs. RSS feeds make it possible for people to keep up with web sites in an automated manner.

RSS feeds can be read using a dedicated program or a modern web browser*. The software will check the feeds regularly for new content, downloading any updates that it finds.
In other words, you do not need to go to the web, the web comes to you!

*As RSS-readers we recommend <a href="http://www.newsgator.com/individuals/netnewswire/">NetNewsWire</a> for Mac-users, and <a href="http://www.yeahreader.com/">YeahReader</a> for Windows-users. The web browser Firefox handles RSS feeds as ’live bookmarks’, which is convenient. You can download Firefox by clicking on the Firefox icon in the left sidebar of the portal page (http://99nicu.org).

Dear all,
we have changed the output of the RSS feed.
New discussions started in any of the medical forums are now included in the RSS feed, but new abstratcs in the Virtual Library are no longer transmitted.
As before, discussions in the Member's Area, incl the Lounge, is NOT included in the RSS feed.

We hope those changes will improve our RSS functionality and help you to keep updated with the most recent discussions initiated by members!
