What is RSS?

With RSS you are automatically informed about new articles by the Global Engineering Excellence initiative (or other content providers). We provide an overview about our articles in a special XML file, which is updated regularly. You can subscribe to this file and read it with special software called RSS reader. RSS reader can be configured, allowing you to define which sources you want to read, and how often these sources should be checked for new articles. The reader then reads the news feeds you have subscribed to and notifies you about new articles, usually by showing a headline and a teaser. If you are interested in an article, you just have to click on it.
