Right Here News Feeds (RSS)

RSS icon

Keep up to date with the Right Here project by signing up to our news feeds (RSS).

What are news feeds?

News feeds allow you to see when a website of your choice has added new content. This means that when this website adds new content to their site, it will immediately be fed onto your browser or website.

Current Right Here news feeds (RSS)
  • Press releases


The advantages of feeding our new content are:

  • it allows more people to find out about the Right Here

  • it enhances the content of the other websites

News feeds often appear as the abbreviation RSS. This is generally understood as 'Really Simple Syndication'.

People do not actually read the RSS as it is written in a XML code. Computers can read XML code and show it on the screen in a way that people can read.

How do I get news feeds?

You will need a news reader. This is a piece of software that allows the RSS code to be read and then viewed on your screen.

There are many different versions of news reader, with new ones appearing all the time. Some can be accessed using a browser and others are downloadable.

Browser-based news readers
These news readers allow you to see your chosen news feeds from any computer.

Downloadable news readers
These stay on your main computer, in the same way that you may download your e-mail from a certain computer using Outlook.

Different news readers work on different operating systems, so you will need to choose one that will work with your computer.

Some browsers, including Firefox, Opera and Safari, automatically check for feeds for you when you visit a website and display an icon when they find one.

Once you have chosen a news reader, all you have to do is to decide what content you want it to receive.

For example, if you would like the latest Right Here press releases, you just need to click on the orange RSS icon on the Media Centre.

If you click on the button you can subscribe to the feed in 2 ways:

  • dragging the URL of the feed into your news reader

  • cutting and pasting the same URL into a new feed in your news reader

Using Right Here news feeds on your site  

If you run your own website, you can display the latest headlines on your own site using RSS.

We encourage you to feed news about Right Here on your own site. However, we do require that you attribute the source to the Right Here website and reproduce the text in its entirety so it is not misleading.
