News RSS
RSS is most commonly considered to stand for 'Really Simple Syndication'
RSS feeds are a way to find out when new news content has been added to The University of Auckland website.
You can have RSS feeds delivered directly to your web browser, or you can download a newsreader. Whenever we add a news item to The University of Auckland website, your browser or newsreader will automatically collect it, without having to visit the website itself.
