We have available for downlaod - FREE of charge. LRUK News Feed reader. I have created URL's to be input into the program, you will find them on the explanation web page. It sits on your desktop automatically updating the latest news of your choice. Of course I have presumed you will be interested in Masonic news, but you can create news feeds for any of your hobbies or interests. www.freemasonrywatch.net/LRUKfeedreader/feedreader.htmIt has a similat feel to Outlook. Best of all it Costs nothing. Have a look

I use Mozilla Firefox as my browser and there exists an "Extension" which is a News Feeder (RSS). I plugged the listed URL's into this with great success.
Thank you for the list billmcelligott.

Well Bill I have to say you were right, it works well, and once over the shock of "lightweight open-source aggregator that supports RSS and ATOM formats". Found quite a lot of useful Masonic items. Though the day to day happenings in Tampa are not of great interest, it is good to see the work going on all over the world. And have been able to pass on quite a few interesting items
Though I have tried to add other news groups I am still waiting for my granddaughter to help.
Many thanks.
