RSS feeds RSS provides a way for Web sites to distribute their content outside of a Web browser. A news Web site might have an RSS feed which contains breaking stories, while a magazine Web site may provide an RSS feed with excerpts of their latest articles. An RSS feed is a file containing a list of information items, each of which has a title, a description and a link to the Web page. The RSS feeds application enables you to get information from the Internet into an easy-toview format without browsing the Web sites. You can browse information from dozens, or hundreds, of Web sites without ever visiting them. Note: Before you can use the RSS feeds application you must set up your Internet accounts in the phone, see Setting up Internet, email and MMS on page 74. Subscribing to RSS feeds To add an RSS feed to your application select Multimedia > RSS feeds > More > Add feed and enter the Web address of a feed. Tip An easy way to subscribe to a new feed is to navigate to an RSS/XML link in the Web browser. Select the link and the Add feed dialog is opened with the Web address of the feed already entered. Reading news items When you start the application a list of your subscribed RSS feeds is displayed. RSS feeds A C FUN&downloads 13:34 (8) B Sony Ericsson News 13:33 (10) Update Open More A. Title of a subscribed RSS feed and time of last update. B. Numbers that appear in parentheses indicate unread feeds. C. Feeds with new news items are displayed in bold.
