RSS is a popular way to pull in news and information from across the Web. "Really Simply Syndication" allows web sites and blogs to push content to you easily.
RSS feeds can be easily added to a variety of sources, from a My Yahoo home page, to a desktop 'aggrigator' such as sage, or even downloaded much like email in applications such as Mozilla Thunderbird.
Anytime you see an RSS button like this: RSS clicking on it will load the feed. To add to your My Yahoo, or other RSS aggregator, copy and paste the link from this button into that application to have the latest news downloaded automatically.

RSS feeds on Vermont.gov are marked by the RSS button. Clicking on either the title link, or this button will link you directly to the RSS feed.
In addition to the feeds marked by the RSS button, each bottom-level link category on Vermont.gov is available as an RSS feed by clicking on the
button contained within the header bar of that category. Using this functionality allows you to create your own collection of links from Vermont.gov and utilize them wherever you may need quick links to Vermont State Government sites.
