Breaking-news RSS feed

If you look at the News & Record home page, you'll see under the "Top News Updates" a little orange button reading "XML." This is a link to the RSS feed for breaking news on the site.

In plain English, you can use an RSS news reader -- either a program that runs on your computer or a Web-based one such as Bloglines.com -- to keep track of these and other feeds, which alert you to changes or updates to their sites. More information about how these feeds work and how you can use them is here.

We will be incorporating many more RSS feeds into the site after we've installed our new publishing software, to make it easier to track changes and updates to various features and other parts of the site. Places we'll probably add them include online section fronts (news, sports, Go Triad, etc.). For now, though, we have them on all our blogs as well as on our breaking-news list. If there's any particular feature or section of the site that you think needs an RSS feed, let us know.
