RSS (Really Simple Syndication) is an XML
format designed for sharing
web content like news headlines. An RSS service (also known as
an RSS channel) consists of a list of items, each of which contains
a headline, description, and a link to a web page. We currently
offer one channel. All RSS feeds from Wineries of Napa Valley are
based on the RSS 2.0 specification.
For convenience, the full
content of our Wineries of Napa Valley RSS feed is made available in
an html page display and may be viewed by clicking on the RSS logo
to the left.
To use RSS and recognize it's full value as a free subscription service,
you will need a special RSS news reader or aggregator that will allow you
to collect and display RSS service. RSS news readers allow you to view the
service you select all together in the same place and, by automatically retrieving
updates, stay current with new content soon after it is published. There
are many different news readers available, many for free. Most news readers
are applications that you download and install. Some others are web-based
service you sign-up for that work inside your browser.
After setting up your news reader, you will be ready to use Wineries
