Good news, everybody: GBH now offers RSS feeds!
If you're up on the whole RSS already, you go right ahead and add us to your reader. The links are below.
The rest of you are probably wondering what RSS is. Further down, you'll find a Wikipedia entry about what RSS is, as well as its scary/quasi-incomprehensible technological underpinnings. But the easy answer is this: every time something new gets added to GBH, you'll get a direct notification.
Wow, you say. Sign me up, you say. Where do I sign up, you say.
Easy. First, you need an RSS Reader. Below you'll find a download link to Snarfer, one of dozens of free RSS readers you can install. There's no consensus on which RSS reader is the best, but we like Snarfer because it's pretty simple to use. If you're not thrilled about Snarfer, just google "RSS reader" or "feed reader" or "feed aggregators," and you'll find tons of them.

After you've installed your reader, just copy/paste as many of our feeds as you like into your reader (the links, as previously mentioned, are below), and you're done!
Wikipedia's entry:
RSS is a family of Web feed formats used to publish frequently updated content such as blog entries, news headlines, and podcasts in a standardized format.[2] An RSS document (which is called a "feed", "web feed"[3], or "channel") contains either a summary of content from an associated web site or the full text. RSS makes it possible for people to keep up with web sites in an automated manner that can be piped into special programs or filtered displays.[3]
The initials "RSS" are used to refer to the following formats:
- Really Simple Syndication (RSS 2.0)
- RDF Site Summary (RSS 1.0 and RSS 0.90)
- Rich Site Summary (RSS 0.91).
RSS formats are specified using XML, a generic specification for the creation of data formats. Although RSS formats have evolved since March 1999,[4] the RSS icon (" ") first gained widespread use in 2005–2006.
