RSS - What is it?

 * RSS** stands for **R**eally **S**imple **S**yndication. You subscribe to a podcast through its RSS feed. This is what makes podcasting so unique. As a podcast listener, you don't need to know much more than that.

Most podcast websites should have an RSS icon somewhere on their homepage. This is a link to the podcast's RSS feed which is needed for subscribing to a podcast. Below are examples of icons you may find.



If you left click the icon, you will see the RSS coding. Ignore that. Copy the URL link in the address bar and paste it in the podcatching software you are using.

For an example of how to do this in Juice and iTunes, watch the video below:

media type="google" key="-5417293875551483154&hl=en"

If you right click over the icon, a context menu will appear. Select "copy shortcut" to copy the RSS feed. Then paste the link in the appropriate space in a 'podcatcher'.



The One-Click Button
Some websites have a one-click button option for subscribing to a podcast in iTunes. This makes subscribing easy. You simply left click on the icon which automatically opens iTunes. You are then asked if you want to subscribe to the podcast. If you click 'yes', you are subscribed.

The one-click icon looks like this:
