Customer Review: Dr. Gwen reviews RSS Feeds for Dummies
The best part about this resource is that it assumes nothing. It takes a complete novice and explains that RSS means really simple syndication. Then it goes into the value of having changing content, the need to choose an RSS that is not only compatible with your content, but will add ever-changing, relevant content. I am using the resource to be sure that I have an accurate understanding of what it is, who it helps, how it helps, when to use one, and how to subscribe to an RSS Feed.

Customer Review: Get started and build your website
This is a terrific guide for anyone interested in starting their own web site. Warner walks the reader through each critical process, explaining clearly the necessary steps to move forward. To get the most out of this book, however, you will need to have the right software to do the steps. You will need to consider how much to invest in the software, and be honest about your commitment and chances of doing it right yourself; otherwise, it may ultimately be better to hire someone out for the job. Nevertheless, if you choose to go at it yourself, there is plenty here to get you started on the right track.
