Indieish : Guerilla video production for the web

Subscribing to Indieish.com or CC:365 is easy. Start getting Indieish.com by email every day by giving us your email address. Indieish.com will never, ever, ever give your email address to anyone, we promise!

If you wish to recieve indieish.com and CC365 with an RSS feed reader, follow the directions below. If you’re new to RSS feeds, we’ve developed a simple tutorial to help you along.

If you’re an old hat at RSS, here are the feed urls you need. If you’re new to the whole RSS thing.. read on.

I’d prefer if you subscribe to http://indieish.com/feed because that way, you get all the music and creative commons album reviews, plus random links and stories about Creative Commons projects.

How to subscribe to an RSS feed.
(This is adapted from Robin Good’s Master New Media site.. Thanks Robin!)

First, you need two things:

1) a news aggregator/reader

2) the URLs of our RSS feeds. (http://cc365.org/feed -or- http://indieish.com/feed )

A news aggregator is an application that gathers and displays interesting news for you. You can tell the aggregator where to collect the news by providing it with the Web addresses (URLs) of RSS News Feeds that you want to subscribe to.

An RSS News Feed is a certain type of XML document that contains information about news on selected Web sources in a language that the aggregator can understand (but you do not need to understand).

To subscribe to Indieish.com or CC365.org simply do the following:

1) Download a newsreader from the Web.

Here are a few possible free solutions:
Mozilla Thunderbird http://www.mozilla.com/thunderbird/ (Reccomended)
FeedReader http://feedreader.com/
AmphetaDesk http://www.disobey.com/ amphetadesk/
NewsCrawler http://www.newzcrawler.com
or go to CNet Download.com “Newsreaders” section and find over 90 of them there:
http://download.com.com/ 3150-2164-0.html?tag=stbc.gp

2) Install the news aggregator on your computer

3) Insert the URL of the News Feed you want to subscribe to (in this case, http://indieish.com/feed )

How exactly you can insert an URL depends on your aggregator.
If you use, for example, NewzCrawler, you do the following:
a) Select “Channel” from the menu bar
b) Select “New”
c) Select “New Newsfeed Channel”
d) Check the option “Enter Newsfeed Channel URL”
e) Enter the URL
f) select a folder inside Newzcrawler where you want to put your feed (you can define folders like in Windows, e.g. you could create a folder called “New Media”)
g) click “Finish”.
