RSS (Really Simple Syndication) is a popular standardized file format used for the delivery of up-to-date web-based content. RSS feeds allow people to receive updates from websites when new content is added and view that content through applications called "RSS readers".
The most common way to view N.B. Crime Stoppers or other RSS feeds on your computer is to use an RSS reader (see below). Once you have an RSS reader setup on your computer, simply copy the RSS feed’s URL and paste it into the appropriate field in your RSS reader.
An alternative to downloading and installing an RSS reader on your computer is to use a Web-based RSS or News reader such as Google Reader. Some email applications also have a built-in RSS reader.
There are many RSS / news readers available online. Some can be downloaded for free, while for others there is a charge for more customizable options. Furthermore, certain readers will work better on different operating systems. You will need to take these factors into account when you choose your software.
