This wiki is one of the major communications channels from innovaphone to partners.  Partners should thus stay up-to-date to with its content.  However, monitoring a website for updates can be quite time-consuming.  RSS feeds are a great way to do this.  Here is how it works.   
 
MediaWiki (upon which inno-wiki is built), features various [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rss RSS] feeds. A news feed can be thought of as a channel where new information is provided regularly and in a coordinated fashion.  These pieces of information (commonly known as "articles") can be accessed by means of web browsers and/or external programs known as "feed readers" or "aggregators". 
 
Both Firefox and Internet Explorer support the inno-wiki feeds.   


In addition to that, there is a whole bunch of feed readers available, most are for free.  One that we at innovaphone found particularly useful is [http://rsspopper.blogspot.com/2004/10/home.html RssPopper]. It retrieves feed articles and inserts them into Outlook or OutlookExpress email folders.

=== Automatic Feeds ===
Popular browsers as well as Microsoft Outlook do support RSS feeds.   
inno-wiki supports a [[Special:WikiFeeds|powerful mechanism to customize RSS feeds]]Sometimes, wiki itself will suggest a feed. Watch out for entries like "RSS | Atom" in the toolbox on the lower left. However, depending on the type of information you are interested in, you may want to try the following:

This feed shows mainly release announcements.

In addition to the feeds listed above, which are created and maintained automatically by the innovaphone wiki, there is an edited feed. ''Edited'' here means that the entries are hand-crafted. The obvious drawback is that when you rely on this feed only, you may might miss some information - if we decide not to post it. The benefit of course is that all messages are filtered by a human which might result in a slightly more sensible choice of information posted (in particular, the ''Changed Articles'' feed noted above tends to send a lot of less useful information hiding the good parts).  As of this writing (fall 2017), we post all noteworthy wiki updates to this edited channel.

Finally, you can also follow the user <code>innovaphone_tec</code> on [https://www.twitter.com twitter], which will receive the same information.
=== Editorial Feeds ===
In addition to the feeds listed above, which are automatically created and maintained by the innovaphone Wiki, there are also editorial topics. Editorial here means that the entries are created by hand. The obvious disadvantage is that if you only rely on this feed, you may miss some information - if we decide not to publish it. The advantage, of course, is that all the news is filtered by a human, which can lead to a slightly more sensible selection of published information.

This wiki is one of the major communications channels from innovaphone to partners. Partners should thus stay up-to-date to with its content. However, monitoring a website for updates can be quite time-consuming. RSS feeds are a great way to do this. Here is how it works.

We offer various RSS feeds. A news feed can be thought of as a channel where new information is provided regularly and in a coordinated fashion. These pieces of information (commonly known as "articles") can be accessed by means of web browsers and/or external programs known as "feed readers" or "aggregators".

Popular browsers as well as Microsoft Outlook do support RSS feeds.
