So, you read the first part of this series and are now excited about the possibility of subscribing to feeds for sites you like. I now propose to give some step-by-step instructions for how to do that, whether you use Firefox, Safari, or Internet Explorer on Mac OS X or Windows. This article concentrates on the Mac, specifically how to set up and use my free feed reader of choice, NetNewsWire from Newsgator.

The principles of subscribing to a feed

When you want to subscribe to a site, there are three steps you have to take. Keep these in mind and you've won half the battle:

1. Find out if the site / section you're interested in has a feed of some kind;
2. Find out the address of that feed;
3. Give that address to your feed reader to add it to your subscriptions list.
