Lexington, KY (March 26, 2008) - The United States Dressage Federation (USDF) announced today that it has created a new Really Simple Syndication (RSS) feed to enable members and businesses to receive the most up-to-date USDF news and headlines.  RSS is an internet protocol that transmits a news feed in real time and is automatically updated as new items become available.  These feeds make it possible for people to keep up with all of the current news and happenings at USDF on their personal Web pages or homepage, with RSS capabilities.  Anyone who wishes to add the USDF RSS feed can do so by clicking on the RSS icon on the USDF Web site. 
          Director of IT Services Chad Compton stated, "The availability of this feed to all of our members, affiliates, and partners will enable us to keep the public informed of important news and updates from USDF instantly and help us to establish ourselves as the primary resource for dressage news in the United States.  Additionally, the development of this feed ties directly into the USDF Strategic Plan by using technology to make dressage news available to people outside of our membership and to create a world class Web site."
          For more information on subscribing to the USDF RSS feed, please visit the USDF Web site or contact the USDF office.
