Want an easy way to keep up on changes to this and thousands of other sites?
Try RSS !
Over the years, the abbreviation RSS has stood for several things (Really Simple Syndication, Rich Site Summary, RDF Site Summary), but nowadays it's just used as a name. RSS is a protocol to share data over the internet. Using a site's RSS feed, you can receive its headlines, links, and article summaries. An increasing number of sites are offering their content as RSS feeds, including Worthington Fire. Our feed can keep you posted on the latest changes, news, and updates on our site without the need to sign up for any newsletter(s).
How do I use it?
To read RSS feeds, people typically use a piece of software called an aggregator, either desktop-, web- or mail-based. The aggregator pulls the RSS feed (which is actually an XML file) from the site, parses it, and presents it in a human-readable format. The aggregator regularly refreshes the feed, for example every hour or every day, and let's you know if new information has become available. After reading an item's description, you may click its link to be transferred to the relevant page on the site.

day.
Why should I use it?
The key point is that you don't have to visit sites to find out what's new. Your computer, running aggregator software, does it for you automatically. It's also a great way to stay up-to-date on a site's content without needing to receive any newsletters or email. Where can you find other RSS feeds? Many news sites and weblogs you frequently visit may already offer an RSS feed. Look for the XML icon, the subscribe button, or words like syndication, channel, RDF and XML.
