What is RSS?

It's really simple. Basically, RSS is a format used to syndicate content. Any kind of content. RSS is so simple, in fact, the acronym actually stands for Really Simple Syndication. Confused? Don't be. Did we mention it's simple?

RSS is simply a way to provide you the exact information you are looking for. Rather than having to search the site each day, it'll just be there, waiting patiently for you log in to your computer.


RSS is all about you

With a lastminute.com RSS feed, you identify the content you like. With our RSS 'feeds', you can have the latest and greatest lastminute.com deals, news and features delivered directly to you. Kinda like having a newspaper delivered to your doorstep, but with no extra charge.

Rather than having to click around on our site, although we know how fun that is too, you can just subscribe to the stuff you're interested in and we'll bring it directly to you. It takes the hassle out of trying to stay up-to-date, by showing you the very latest deals and information that you are interested in automatically.


Where does the RSS information come from?

All pages that feature the RSS symbol will have their own RSS 'feed' which can be used by you free of charge. Simply drag the symbol from its webpage and drop it into a new feed field in your reader, or for My Yahoo! click on the symbol. This will automatically add that feed to your list.
