What if your visitors could read your web content on their desktop whenever they wanted?
Tendenci® includes the ability to syndicate your content with RSS 
including 
podcasting audio files.
What is RSS? According to newsmonster:
RSS is an acronym for Rich Site Summary, an XML format for distributing news headlines on the Web, also known as syndication. (more on rss)
We prefer the definition of "Really Simple Syndication." It is nothing more than presenting your Web site files in a very basic format so that other sites can easily interact with your data.
What this means to you is that your members can "read" your web site content whenever they want.
While RSS is popular for news sites, it can be used for almost anything on your site - like your organization's calendar of events, for example.
The integrated RSS mechanism in Tendenci is smart enough to skip old calendar events and ones that are too far in the future. It works like you would expect it. Checking the syndicate box will automatically include the content to be published as part of your feed.
You stay in control of your content because you have the option to syndicate or not syndicate any content to the RSS feed. But hey, if you choose to syndicate others can be up on all of the association happenings!
Given more and more associations are focusing on bringing the organization to the desktop and letting the membership engage on their terms; RSS is one more benefit of Tendenci.
A few good RSS readers are:
- Bloglines - web based
- Sage - RSS for Firefox
- You Subscribe - RSS for Outlook
- Feedroll to add RSS from a Tendenci site to your site
There are a bunch of RSS readers out there so feel free to search Google for RSS readers
