Abstract
SANCHEZ TARRAGO, Nancy. Syndication of contents with RSS channels: present applications and tendencies. ACIMED [online]. 2007, vol.15, n.3, pp. 0-0. ISSN 1024-9435.
The syndication of contents through RSS channels is a contemporary method of content distribution in the Web that enables the users to access only to the contents of their interest with no need to surf from one page to another. For content suppliers, it constitutes a method to personalize their services and to attract users to their websites. General aspects on the RSS channels, as well as their origin and evolution, are analyzed. Examples of their present applications in magazines, mass media, educational environments, commercial centres and information institutions are given. Some recent trends in its use, not only to distribute texts, but also other multimedia contents such as audio and video, are stated. The tendency towards the expansion and diversification of its use is emphasized.
