(Briefly define the concept, including a hyperlink.) RSS (Rich Site Summary) is a format for delivering regularly changing web content. Many news-related sites, weblogs and other online publishers syndicate their content as an RSS Feed to whoever wants it. http://cyber.law.harvard.edu/rss/rss.html http://rss.softwaregarden.com/aboutrss.html 2) What are some examples of service providers? (Include hyperlinks) Ecommerce RSS 2.0 Module Media RSS 2.0 Module OpenSearch RSS 2.0 Module http://search.yahoo.com/mrss http://shopping.discovery.com/erss/ 3) In general, how is the concept relevant for public relations students (or practitioners)? By using RSS, PR practitioners can have the news come to them as opposed to having to search the web for news. Pr practitioners need to have the news at their finger tips all the time and RSS is a way to make their jobs easier. 4) How could you apply the concept for your client for this class? (You do not need to identify your client, unless you want to.) This would benefit my client by allowing them to have direct access to other Houses across the globe. The could be able to see what other Houses are doing to raise money or to “lift” the spirits of the children and their families. 1) What does the concept mean?

It also provides an alternate channel for communicating directly with your audience. The simple fact about RSS is that it is becoming a useful mechanism for reading and publishing content online. It means that publishers can cut through the spam filter directly to their readers as long as their content is relevant and well written.

Some service providers are : http://www.delicious.com, a social bookmarking site. But you can also use tags on sites like http://www.technorati.com, and http://www.fickr.com. Tagging is a good way to organize information on the web into different categories so you can find it easier. Tagging also adds a link to supplementary information or topics including videos and pictures. Tagging could be relevant with my client in many ways. The first is on our Kappa Sigma @ Georgia Southern website. We tag many pictures and videos of our events and brothers on here for the incoming rushees and everyone else to see. Also if we make a Facebook group for an event, we tag pictures and such on there to add to the interest of the event. Also with taggging, the officers of the fraternity can get important information to everyone simply by tagging them with it.
