News

When something new happens, like an update to the fishing report or any offers or events we might have on, we put it on our RSS News Feed.

What on Earth are you talking about?  RSS News Feed, indeed!

RSS stands for Really Simple Syndication.  What it means is an easier life - if you're busy, you don't want to keep trawling through websites to keep up-to-date with them.  It takes time and sometimes, even if there is news, it's not something that interests you.

Using an 'aggregator' or 'news reader' such as KlipFolio, you can tell it what you'd like to keep an eye on and it will automatically let you know when anything changes.  It could be news headlines, sport headlines, or anything from sites  that display this symbol: .  All you do is cast an eye over the headline and, if you think it's worth a bit more of your time, follow the link to find out more.  Easy peasy, and you don't have to type in lots of different website addresses every time!

If you don't want to use KlipFolio and already have another aggregator working, use this URL to get Cwm Hedd News: http://flyfishing.cwmhedd.co.uk/rss.xml

Klip Folio is my personal favourite, probably because it's pretty and easy to use, but there are several others out there!  So I'll tell you about mine and then you can decide if you'd like it or not.

This is what it looks like, first of all: a little flower icon down in the corner of the screen that brings up this when you click it (well, not exactly like this because I've chosen what I do and don't want to see.  You might not want to see the same things!)

Now, at a glance I can see the news headlines which scroll to show me new things, I can check the weather, have a look at the KlipFolio forum and I can see what I've written about Cwm Hedd news.  For a bit more information about something, I can hover the mouse over a headline thusly:

Then if my interest has been piqued and I want to know more, I can follow the link to read the full story - all without typing a single address!  I'd really recommend it, it's saved me so much time in keeping abreast of current affairs...
