Many RSS apps have highly effective methods of stripping clutter, leaving you with a simple list of news articles and the content you want. Subscribing to a bunch of RSS feeds means that you can have all your favourite news sources in one accessible place. In some cases, the problems may extend beyond clutter. JAWS users can of course work around this with the unique and impressive Flexible Web feature. They’re full of extraneous links, ads, and general clutter. Second, we all know how cluttered a lot of news and blog sites can be. So it saves you time, and you are likely to see a post more quickly. Subscribe to the RSS feed for the Mosen Consulting blog, and the latest post will just appear in your reader as soon as Bonnie or I have written it. There are a few advantages of subscribing to an RSS feed in a feed aggregator, rather than visiting a site in your web browser.įirst, you don’t have to keep coming back to a blog to see if its author has updated it.

Over the last couple of months, I’ve changed the apps I use for interacting with RSS feeds. ![]()
