Please subscribe to our Whiteboard’s RSS Feed! (You will see the orange “Subscribe by RSS” button to the right of this post). This way, you will be notified when the Whiteboard has been updated instead of having to check back on a regular basis.

Instead of visiting your favourite websites or blogs to see if anything new has been posted, RSS feeds bring the content directly to you, saving you valuable time and allowing you to stay focused on what matters to you.

All you need is an RSS aggregator or reader (such as pageflakes, igoogle, bloglines, etc.). This YouTube video should answer all your questions about RSS.
