Stay Updated to Your Favorite Web Content for Free

How do you get content from the web? Do you still manually check your favorite web sites every day for updates? Have you ever missed an important news story or blog article? If you’re still surfing individual web sites in the hunt for new content, then you should consider visiting one web site that can consolidate all of your favorite Internet locations into a single view. Welcome to your “live” personalized news page from Bloglines.com!

Bloglines is a Really Simple Syndication (RSS) aggregator that changes the way you get information from the web. Instead of the old process of manually surfing the web sites that you find interesting, Bloglines surfs the web for you and notifies you whenever new content is available.

You’ve probably seen web sites that have a “subscribe” link or an RSS button like these.

Bloglines uses these special web links to build an index of articles that are constantly updated on a single web page. Imagine having instant updates when any of your favorite web sites are updated, along with a quick and easy way to read the new content without visiting the web site!

To get started with Bloglines, visit http://www.bloglines.com and sign up for a free account. Once you log in for the first time, you can start adding your favorite web sites to your “My Feeds” list. The Bloglines subscription options allow you to add blogs such as MySpace and LiveJournal, or you can use the “Quick Pick Subscriptions” to easily add news feeds from the Internet’s most popular sites, such as Slashdot, Boing Boing, CNN, The New York Times, or Guardian Unlimited. You can also manually add your favorite web site to the list and Bloglines will look for a compatible RSS feed.

Once your feed list is created, simply click the “My Feeds” tab to begin viewing your list of personalized web content. Each time you find an interesting web site, add the location to your Bloglines feed list. You’ll quickly find that your list of feeds will become the center of your online information gathering universe.

Bloglines makes it easy to edit, update, and read the latest content from any web browser. Bloglines also provides a mobile version that’s formatted to work perfectly on PDAs and web-enabled mobile telephones. You’ll never miss important web content again!
