Author Feeds

We feature many great writers and thinkers, and don’t have enough column-inches to list them all here. The good news is that each of them has their own RSS Feed.

To subscribe an Author’s Feed, click on their name in the byline of any blog post. You’ll find that author’s feed in the “Stay Up to Date” box on the subsequent page.

What Is RSS and Why Is it Useful?

RSS iconRSS stands for Really Simple Syndication, and it’s a convenient way for you to stay up to date on the latest content from your favorite blogs. You can read the most recent posts from all of the blogs you’re subscribed to on a single website or a single screen on your desktop — called a feed aggregator or feedreader. All of the Important Media blogs (and many of our special features!) offer RSS feeds.

How Do I Subscribe to Important Media RSS Feeds?

To subscribe to an RSS feed for a given site, click on it and select your desired Reader.

After you have subscribed, our latest content will appear automatically in your feedreader within minutes after we post it. You can quickly scan the headlines and decide which ones to click on and read.

If that doesn’t work for some reason (old browser?), copy (right-click and select “Copy Link Location” or “Copy Shortcut”) and paste the feed URL into the appropriate window in the feedreader you’re using.

What Programs Can I Use to Sign Up for RSS feeds?

You can subscribe to RSS feeds using either a web-based feedreader that you view in a browser window or with a software application you download onto your computer. There are dozens of excellent options that are free and easy to use. Here are a few that we recommend:
