Atom

The Middlesex North Registry of Deed's blog is now available as an Atom feed. Atom is an information feeder that regularly sends updated summaries of web and blog content to subscribers. With Atom you will automatically receive registry blog entries as soon as they are posted. These immediate updates are available only if you have a “FeedReader”. It sounds a little complicated, but it's really not. All you need to do is download a FeedReader, we (well, actually Blogger) does the rest. Atom is widely used by the blogging community to share the latest entries’ headlines or full text. When Atom syndication is activated an XML version of the updated blog can be picked up and displayed in a variety of ways, such as newsreaders, web sites and handheld devices. As mentioned earlier to receive Atom updates of the registry’s blog you must first download a feeder. Bloglines and GoogleReader are two very popular readers that are available free.
