If you browse the web regularly, you probably have favorite web sites that you visit frequently to check if new information has been posted on your topic of interest. It is also likely that for each site you visit, you check many different sections for content updates. This is time consuming, not to mention tedious, especially if you have many sites to check. Wouldn't it be great if you knew which web sites have new content at the time you are browsing? That way, you would only have to go to sites that have changed.   

BusterNews is a web-based application that will periodically check web sites for new content, retrieve them for you, and save a summary of the new content. This is done through RSS feeds provided by web sites.

RSS, or 'Really Simple Syndication', is an Internet standard document format that allows for easily sharing information such as news headlines and other web content. RSS feeds are usually used by web sites as a 'table of contents' for recently published content. If a web site has an RSS feed, BusterNews can fetch the feed for you.

Tip: You can usually tell if a web site provides an RSS feed by orange icons that link to their feeds. Some of these icons might look like  or . Clicking on these icons on the web sites you visit will open a document that is somewhat readable, but not really. This is because the document is meant to be read more by applications such as BusterNews , rather than by humans. So if your favorite web site provides an RSS feed, let BusterNews deliver the web to you! You can enter the address that the icons point to into your BusterNews feed sources.

Using BusterNews is as easy as 1-2-3!

  1. Sign-up for an account.
  2. Create your list of feed sources - you can select from a list of recommended feeds or manually enter your own.
