A Tutorial on RSS Ticker
RSS Ticker is an add-on, also called an extension, for the Mozilla Firefox Web browser. Using RSS Ticker, you can keep track of new items that come from the RSS feeds you provide. The new items, which are usually blog posts or other updates, scroll across the bottom of your Firefox browser much like a stock ticker. If you're new to using RSS Ticker, there are a few steps you can take to learn how to use the extension and get the most from it.
