By using an RSS reader to subscribe to any of the feeds, you will receive the latest news, information and weekly radio programs directly from the Planetary Society web site.

The Planetary Society offers the following RSS feeds:

RSS (Really Simple Syndication) is a list of headlines and web links published as an XML file which can be read by desktop news reader programs, or used to include content on your own web site if your site or blog has the capability to use RSS. There are also web-based RSS readers you can subscribe to.

By using an RSS reader to subscribe to an RSS feed, you will receive the latest news, links, and information from the Planetary Society web site.

Many RSS readers (also called aggregators) are available, often for free. You can find extensive lists of desktop and web-based RSS readers at Google Directory's index of RSS Newsreaders and allRSS.com.

Some popular desktop programs include:

• Mozilla Thunderbird (Windows, Mac, Linux)
• Pluck (Windows, Mac, Linux, web)
• Headline Viewer (Windows w/ Internet Explorer only)

Podcasts are basically RSS feeds for audio, allowing users to subscribe to a feed of new files (usually MP3s). Podcasting is an easy new way to automatically download audio programs to your MP3 player through your computer. You use free software to choose programs you like; the software checks the internet regularly and starts a download whenever it finds something new. A podcast is comparable to an audio magazine subscription in that the subscriber receives regular programs that they can listen to or view at their own leisure.

Programs that support podcast subscriptions include:

• Apple iTunes (Mac and Windows)
• iPodder (Mac, Windows, and Linux)
• Doppler (Windows XP)
• iPodderX (Mac, Windows)
