Town's website now RSS/Atom friendly. Wanna know more?

The Town has quietly added a neat feature to the flower-mound.com website. See that icon in the bottom right hand corner? Now you can "syndicate" updated Town headlines from its website into your own newsreader.

Not familiar with website "syndication" or terms like XML, RSS, or Atom, or what they can do to make your life easier by keeping you better informed with less work, here's a good primer. If you do a Google search on "RSS Primer", you'll find many more reference pages on RSS, and how you can make it work for you. It's a great tool.
