Issue 3 - The Really Simple Issue (RSS)

Welcome to the third issue of DNN Creative Magazine

This issue is completely dedicated to RSS (Really Simple Syndication).

Have you noticed this orange RSS icon appearing more and more on websites and wondered what it is for?

This issue looks at RSS from the very beginning, through to the benefits RSS can bring to your website and demonstrates how to implement RSS in a DotNetNuke website.

The features section consists of 8 free RSS articles, which will demonstrate why you should not delay in implementing RSS feeds.

The interview section discusses Podcasting, as well as continuing the How Did They Build it? series, which offers a detailed insight into the development of cryoresponse.com

And finally, if you feel the need to play after studying RSS, there is a tutorial covering how to implement Flash Games into your DotNetNuke websites.
