HOWTO: Read RSS Feeds from Drupal Taxonomy Terms

Motivation

If you ask anybody that uses it, RSS feeds change the way that people get their news updates, monitor dynamic websites, stay up to date with a forum, and generally get information. Occasionally my wife asks me how I know all the things I know and I seriously credit spending an hour in the morning with my 50+ RSS feeds reading news. Whether it's the life and times of Trae or it's a feed that tracks new Drupal modules - RSS feeds are the major way that I get my regular dose of new information.

The major problem with RSS feeds - along with many bleeding edge Web2.0 technologies - is that while the 53,651 may follow them, they aren't nearly as useful to "my mom". Well mom, this Movie's for you.

Background

In this movie I visit a site built with the Drupal CMS where different posts to the site get added into categories. These categories are available to everyone, but how do you know if there is new content? One way is to use the RSS feeds for each category. Using these feeds and a piece of software called a "feed reader" you can regularly check many websites for updated content. I use two different feed readers that are available to a very wide audience: the Mozilla Firefox browser and the Google Feed Reader.
