RSS stands for "Really Simple Syndication" and is a method of publishing frequently updated Web content like news headlines in a standardized format.

RSS allows you to subscribe to a news feed and have its updates automatically delivered to you. Subscribing to Santee Cooper's Newsroom and Green News feeds means you won't have to keep visiting this Web site to see if new information has been posted.

Before subscribing to Santee Cooper's RSS feeds (or any RSS feed), you will need to register with an RSS feed reader (or aggregator). Yahoo, AOL and Google offer these services to their users, as do browsers like Firefox, Internet Explorer and Safari. There are also several free aggregators available online.

After choosing a feed reader, simply return to www.santeecooper.com and click on the "subscribe" links for Santee Cooper's Newsroom and Green News feeds.

You should now receive updates automatically.
