Do you use RSS?
RSS is a simple XML-based system that allows users to subscribe to their favorite websites. Using RSS, a webmaster can put their content into a standardised format, which can be viewed and organised through a RSS-aware software.
A program known as a feed reader or aggregator can check a list of feeds on behalf of a user and display any updated articles that it finds.
Here on Shipwreck Central there are some RSS feeds that you can use. Copy and paste these links into your reader:
Featured Video
http://link.brightcove.com/services/link/bcpid896795?action=rss
Live from the Dive
http://www.shipwreckcentral.com/livedive/index.rdf
And members can subcribe their video player as well. Just click the share button under the video. Then click RSS feed and choose how you want to get it. I get my through my email program (I use thunderbird) and on my Google customized home page.
