LowerManhattan.info now features RSS technology capability, allowing you to elect to have updated content about Lower Manhattan delivered automatically to your computer or handheld device.

RSS, which stands for Really Simple Syndication, is a technology that delivers information as an XML file called an “RSS feed.” Typically, a content provider -- in this case LowerManhattan.info -- publishes a feed link on its site, which you can add to an “RSS reader,” a program that can aggregate numerous feeds on your desktop, handheld device, or web browser. Once that link has been added, you’ll receive updates automatically whenever new headlines are posted to the LowerManhattan.info website. So even on days when you’re too busy to visit our site, you’ll still stay up to date on downtown news.

To begin receiving regular updates, simply copy the LowerManhattan.info RSS feed link -- http://www.lowermanhattan.info/tools/rss/headlines.xml -- into your RSS reader.

Don’t have an RSS reader? Not a problem. There are dozens of programs available for download, many of them free. A quick online search for RSS readers will provide you with the information you need to get up and running.

We hope you’ll take advantage of this convenient technology to receive downtown news and information when and where and you want it.
