Feeding 101

Dining with friends last night, I realized they completely missed my point about the usage of RSS, XML, and FEEDS to keep up to date with Palette Dome Cuisine. I guess things got too technical. The engineer in me does take over at times. To make it simpler, here are simple bullets to guide you through the process:

– Subscribing is FREE. No money exchange involved. Think of it as Palette Dome Cuisine putting an electronic billboard in your neighborhood: it does not cost you a thing.

– Click on the SUBSCRIBE link on the sidebar. It will open a page with subscription options: RSS, XML and email.

The simplest way is to subscribe to our email service:

1. Write your email address in the yellow box
2. Click the subscribe button
3. Check your Inbox for an automated verification email from us. If it did not arrive within a few minutes, check your junk mail folder – junk email filters don’t always like automated messages…
4. Follow the instructions in the email
5. You are finished! From now on you will get all new posts via email
6. If you decide to unsubscribe at any point, there are no questions asked: simply follow the unsubscribe option that appears on every email from us

A more modern yet technical way is to subscribe to our RSS\ XML feed. This will require a bit more technical knowledge, but is still very easy. The big advantage here is that you will never be bothered by us via email, yet you will see our updated content on your RSS\XML reader whenever you use it.

1. Click the RSS link on the subscription page
2. Choose your RSS reader
3. If you don’t see your reader on the list, try the VIEW FEED XML link. This will bring other readers like Outlook as an option
4. Follow the instructions you get from your reader. Your subscription is a few clicks away!
5. That’s it from now on every new post will be automatically delivered to your Reader application when you open it!
6. If you decide to unsubscribe at any point, simply follow your RSS Reader’s instructions: you are in full charge there

I recommend reading the original post for more details about RSS and feeds, but if all you want is to click and subscribe, I think these instructions do the job just fine.

Have a great weekend, and Happy New Jewish Year!
