Already getting too much email? Here's an easy way to get instant access to the Weekly Woodworking Tips as soon as they are published—without using email. How? Use RSS!

What is RSS?
RSS (Really Simple Syndication) is one of the best kept secrets on the internet. A terrific alternative to conventional email, RSS gives you direct access to your favorite newsletters, blogs, weekly tips (like our woodworking tips), and other web sites you might normally subscribe to with an email address.

How do I get started?
Your first step in using RSS is to download and install a "newsreader" program from the Web (most are free). A simple internet search for keywords "RSS newsreader" will give you a variety of newsreader programs to choose from and information about how to use them. Or check out this helpful listing of some of the more popular newsreader programs available: http://blogspace.com/rss/readers

If you prefer not to install software on your computer, consider setting up a free account with an online newsreader service, like Bloglines:
http://www.bloglines.com
The online newsreader services use the same RSS technology as newsreaders that run on your computer, bringing you notification of up-to-date information from your favorite web sites and blogs.

Once your newsreader software is installed (or you have set up an online newsreader account) locate the place where you can add new RSS or XML "feeds" to your list. Then copy and paste this URL for the Weekly Woodworking Tips RSS feed:

http://www.woodworkingtips.com/rss/feed.xml

That's all there is to it. As soon as we publish a new Weekly Woodworking Tip, your RSS newsreader will notify you with a direct link to the new woodworking tip.
