What is RSS?

Click on the button to the left to see the MetLink RSS feed live. (this updates about every 30 minutes)

 


RSS is an easy way for you to keep track of the latest news from selected sites in one convenient place.

RSS - which stands for Rich Site Summary or Really Simple Syndication - allows you to see the latest headlines from these sites and to then be able to click directly through to the articles that you want to read.
