GameHuddle | RSS Feeds

RSS (really simple syndication) service is a means by which GameHuddle offers feeds of news headlines, discussions, and game reviews in XML format to those who use RSS aggregators. The RSS service may be used only with those platforms from which a functional link is made available that, when accessed, takes the viewer directly to the display of the full article on the GameHuddle site. You may not display the RSS content in a manner that does not permit successful linking to, redirection to or delivery to a GameHuddle web page. You may not insert any intermediate page, splash page or other content between the RSS link and the GameHuddle web page.

GameHuddle reserves the right to discontinue providing any or all of the RSS feeds at any time and to require you to cease displaying, distributing or otherwise using any or all of the RSS feeds for any reason including, without limitation, your violation of any provision of these Terms.

What is RSS?

RSS (Really Simple Syndication) is a web content syndication format. RSS is a form of XML which is used to publish content in a standardized format. It can be utilized by many different news aggregators and programs as well as embeded news and information into other web sites to display up-to-date news from that site.

How Do I Use RSS?

RSS is flexible and can be used in many different ways. You will need a feed reader, or aggregator, to make it work. A feed reader is an application that runs in the background and always searches for updates. There are three types of readers - standalone, add-ons and built-in web feed readers.

Standalone Readers

A standalone application, such as FeedDemon, is your news hunter and gatherer. It provides you with the ability to access your news feeds while offline. The drawback, however, is that it's yet another program that you have to open on your desktop.

Add-On Readers

Add-on readers, such as Pluck, plug right into your web browser. The upside to these programs is you already use a web browser, so it just plugs right in. The downside, however, it can become cumbersome to find your feeds fast.

Built-In Readers

Web-based feed readers are built directly into the browser and require no special installation. Firefox, for example, automatically enables you to add RSS feeds to your favorites folder creating "Live Bookmarks". Microsoft also has RSS support for IE7.
