Layanan RSS Feed ANTARA

2008-04-15T23:50:00.000-07:00

RSS (Really Simple Syndication) adalah istilah dalam teknologi Internet yang merujuk pada cara men-sindikasi-kan konten sebuah situs web (web syndication). Layanan ini memudahkan pengguna Internet agar selalu dapat mengetahui ringkasan konten terbaru dari situs tertentu tanpa harus terlebih dahulu mengunjungi situs tersebut. Selain itu, RSS yang disediakan sebuah situs dapat digunakan untuk melengkapi konten situs lain.

Layanan RSS disalurkan melalui sebuah file berformat XML yang dapat dibaca oleh publik dengan menggunakan program pembaca RSS yang disebut dengan news aggregator atau feed reader. Beragam program ini dapat di-download secara gratis dari Internet. Program yang diinstal pada PC secara otomatis akan memeriksa file XML yang disediakan situs tertentu secara berkala. Jika informasi terbaru ditemukan, program akan menampilkan judul dan ringkasannya pada PC pengguna, lengkap dengan link yang dapat di-klik untuk membuka halaman web-nya.

ANTARA menyediakan layanan RSS Feed sesuai standar yang ditetapkan RSS working group.

Apa Itu RSS?

2008-04-15T23:42:00.000-07:00

RSS (”Really Simple Syndication” atau “Rich Site Summary”) merupakan cara mutakhir untuk membaca berita-berita atau tulisan-tulisan terbaru dari sebuah situs web maupun weblog. Membacanya tidak perlu dengan cara membuka browser, tapi cukup menggunakan sejumlah pembaca RSS khusus (seperti Newsgator) atau di fasilitas RSS yang ada di layanan seperti Yahoo atau Google. Bahkan, browser-browser semacam Mozilla Firefox, Safari, Opera Internet Explorer 7 sudah mendukung RSS feeds.

Bagaimana caranya?

1. Anda harus memastikan dulu apakah situs atau blog kesayangan Anda sudah memiliki fasilitas RSS atau belum.

2. Anda tinggal menyalin alamat RSS yang disediakan, lalu menaruh alamat tersebut di aplikasi pembaca RSS. Untuk itu, cari tombol berwarna orannye seperti ini

3. Untuk menemukan alamat (URL) RSS-nya, klik kanan di tombol oranye tersebut, lalu pilih "Copy Shortcut".

4. Anda juga bisa mengklik tombol tersebut, lalu menyalin (Ctrl + C) alamat RSS yang terdapat di address bar browser Anda. Lalu menaruhnya (Ctrl + V) ke kotak alamat di aplikasi pembaca RSS Anda dan klik "Add".

Khusus untuk RSS Tempo Interaktif, Anda tinggal menyalin alamat dalam daftar di bawah ini dan memasukkannya ke pembaca RSS Anda.

Modules

2008-04-15T23:38:00.000-07:00

The primary objective of all RSS modules is to extend the basic XML schema established for more robust syndication of content. This inherently allows for more diverse, yet standardized, transactions without modifying the core RSS specification.

To accomplish this extension, a tightly controlled vocabulary (in the RSS world, "module"; in the XML world, "schema") is declared through an XML namespace to give names to concepts and relationships between those concepts.

Some RSS 2.0 modules with established namespaces:
Ecommerce RSS 2.0 Module
Media RSS 2.0 Module
OpenSearch RSS 2.0 Module

Incompatibilities

2008-04-15T23:32:00.000-07:00

As noted above, there are several different versions of RSS, falling into two major branches (RDF and 2.*). The RDF, or RSS 1.* branch includes the following versions:
RSS 0.90 was the original Netscape RSS version. This RSS was called RDF Site Summary, but was based on an early working draft of the RDF standard, and was not compatible with the final RDF Recommendation.
RSS 1.0 is an open format by the RSS-DEV Working Group, again standing for RDF Site Summary. RSS 1.0 is an RDF format like RSS 0.90, but not fully compatible with it, since 1.0 is based on the final RDF 1.0 Recommendation.
RSS 1.1 is also an open format and is intended to update and replace RSS 1.0. The specification is an independent draft not supported or endorsed in any way by the RSS-Dev Working Group or any other organization.

The RSS 2.* branch (initially UserLand, now Harvard) includes the following versions:
RSS 0.91 is the simplified RSS version released by Netscape, and also the version number of the simplified version championed by Dave Winer from Userland Software. The Netscape version was now called Rich Site Summary; this was no longer an RDF format, but was relatively easy to use. It remains the most common RSS variant.
RSS 0.92 through 0.94 are expansions of the RSS 0.91 format, which are mostly compatible with each other and with Winer's version of RSS 0.91, but are not compatible with RSS 0.90. In all Userland RSS 0.9x specifications, RSS was no longer an acronym.
RSS 2.0.1 has the internal version number 2.0. RSS 2.0.1 was proclaimed to be "frozen", but still updated shortly after release without changing the version number. RSS now stood for Really Simple Syndication. The major change in this version is an explicit extension mechanism using XML Namespaces.

For the most part, later versions in each branch are backward-compatible with earlier versions (aside from non-conformant RDF syntax in 0.90), and both versions include properly documented extension mechanisms using XML Namespaces, either directly (in the 2.* branch) or through RDF (in the 1.* branch). Most syndication software supports both branches. Mark Pilgrim's article "The Myth of RSS Compatibility" discusses RSS version compatibility in more detail.

The extension mechanisms make it possible for each branch to track innovations in the other. For example, the RSS 2.* branch was the first to support enclosures, making it the current leading choice for podcasting, and as of mid-2005 is the format supported for that use by iTunes and other podcasting software; however, an enclosure extension is now available for the RSS 1.* branch, mod_enclosure. Likewise, the RSS 2.* core specification does not support providing full-text in addition to a synopsis, but the RSS 1.* markup can be (and often is) used as an extension. There are also several common outside extension packages available, including a new proposal from Microsoft for use in Internet Explorer 7.

The most serious compatibility problem is with HTML markup. Userland's RSS reader—generally considered as the reference implementation—did not originally filter out HTML markup from feeds. As a result, publishers began placing HTML markup into the titles and descriptions of items in their RSS feeds. This behavior has become expected of readers, to the point of becoming a de facto standard, though there is still some inconsistency in how software handles this markup, particularly in titles. The RSS 2.0 specification was later updated to include examples of entity-encoded HTML; however, all prior plain text usages remain valid.

History

2008-04-15T23:24:00.000-07:00

The RSS formats were preceded by several attempts at syndication that did not achieve widespread popularity. The basic idea of restructuring information about web sites goes back to as early as 1995, when Ramanathan V. Guha and others in Apple Computer's Advanced Technology Group developed the Meta Content Framework (MCF). For a more detailed discussion of these early developments, see the history of web syndication technology.

RDF Site Summary, the first version of RSS, was created by Guha at Netscape in March 1999 for use on the My.Netscape.Com portal. This version became known as RSS 0.9. In July 1999, Dan Libby of Netscape produced a new version, RSS 0.91, that simplified the format by removing RDF elements and incorporating elements from Dave Winer's scriptingNews syndication format. Libby also renamed RSS to Rich Site Summary and outlined further development of the format in a "futures document".

This would be Netscape's last participation in RSS development for eight years. As RSS was being embraced by web publishers who wanted their feeds to be used on My.Netscape.Com and other early RSS portals, Netscape dropped RSS support from My.Netscape.Com in April 2001 during new owner AOL's restructuring of the company, also removing documentation and tools that supported the format.

Two entities emerged to fill the void, with neither Netscape's help nor approval: The RSS-DEV Working Group and Winer, whose UserLand Software had published some of the first publishing tools outside of Netscape that could read and write RSS.

Winer published a modified version of the RSS 0.91 specification on the UserLand web site, covering how it was being used in his company's products, and claimed copyright to the document. A few months later, UserLand filed a U.S. trademark registration for RSS, but failed to respond to a USPTO trademark examiner's request and the request was rejected in December 2001.

The RSS-DEV Working Group, a project whose members included Guha and representatives of O'Reilly Media and Moreover, produced RSS 1.0 in December 2000. This new version, which reclaimed the name RDF Site Summary from RSS 0.9, reintroduced support for RDF and added XML namespaces support, adopting elements from standard metadata vocabularies such as Dublin Core.

In December 2000, Winer released RSS 0.92 a minor set of changes aside from the introduction of the enclosure element, which permitted audio files to be carried in RSS feeds and helped spark podcasting. He also released drafts of RSS 0.93 and RSS 0.94 that were subsequently withdrawn.

In September 2002, Winer released a major new version of the format, RSS 2.0, that redubbed its initials Really Simple Syndication. RSS 2.0 removed the type attribute added in the RSS 0.94 draft and added support for namespaces.

Because neither Winer nor the RSS-DEV Working Group had Netscape's involvement, they could not make an official claim on the RSS name or format. This has fueled ongoing controversy in the syndication development community as to which entity was the proper publisher of RSS.

One product of that contentious debate was the creation of an alternative syndication format, Atom, that began in June 2003. The Atom syndication format, whose creation was in part motivated by a desire to get a clean start free of the issues surrounding RSS, has been adopted as IETF Proposed Standard RFC 4287.

In July 2003, Winer and UserLand Software assigned the copyright of the RSS 2.0 specification to Harvard's Berkman Center for the Internet & Society, where he had just begun a term as a visiting fellow.[14] At the same time, Winer launched the RSS Advisory Board with Brent Simmons and Jon Udell, a group whose purpose was to maintain and publish the specification and answer questions about the format.

In December 2005, the Microsoft Internet Explorer team and Outlook team announced on their blogs that they were adopting the feed icon first used in the Mozilla Firefox browser . A few months later, Opera Software followed suit. This effectively made the orange square with white radio waves the industry standard for RSS and Atom feeds, replacing the large variety of icons and text that had been used previously to identify syndication data.

In January 2006, Rogers Cadenhead relaunched the RSS Advisory Board without Dave Winer's participation, with a stated desire to continue the development of the RSS format and resolve ambiguities. In June 2007, the board revised their version of the specification to confirm that namespaces may extend core elements with namespace attributes, as Microsoft has done in Internet Explorer 7. In their view, a difference of interpretation left publishers unsure of whether this was permitted or forbidden.

Penggunaan

2008-04-15T23:22:00.000-07:00

RSS digunakan secara luas oleh komunitas weblog untuk menyebar ringkasan tulisan terbaru di jurnal, kadang-kadang juga menyertakan artikel lengkap dan bahkan gambar dan suara. Sekitar 2000, penggunaan RSS meluas di berbagai penerbitan berita, termasuk Reuters, CNN, dan BBC. RSS digunakan pada hampir semua situs berita atau weblog, dengan berbagai tujuan termasuk: pemasaran, press release, laporan reguler produk, atau aktivitas lain yang membutuhkan pemberitahuan periodik dan tentunya publikasi.

Sebuah program komputer yang dikenal sebagai pembaca umpan (feed reader) bertindak sebagai pengumpul. Program ini mengecek situs yang menyediakan RSS dan menampilkan berbagai artikel baru yang ditemukan. Tenggang waktu dan siklus pengumpulan RSS biasanya dapat diatur oleh penggunanya. Program pengumpul dapat berupa program komputer atau sebuah layanan web yang tersedia online.

Program pengumpul RSS di komputer biasanya berupa aplikasi (software) sendiri yang harus dipasang di komputer sebelum dapat digunakan. Program ini tersedia untuk berbagai jenis sistem operasi dengan harga bervariasi. Ada juga program pengumpul RSS yang gratis. Lihat Daftar pengumpul RSS.

Program pengumpul di web tidak memerlukan pemasangan dan pengaturan, kita dapat melihat dan mengecek RSS kita di mana saja, asal ada browser dan koneksi internet. Beberapa layanan pengumpul RSS juga menyediakan penggabungan dan juga pencarian.

Sebuah web yang menyediakan umpan RSS biasanya ada link dengan sebuah tombol bertuliskan XML () atau RSS (). Namun disarankan menggunakan RSS daripada XML agar tidak membuat kerancuan (sebab setiap RSS adalah XML, tapi tidak tiap XML itu RSS).

Seperti ditulis di atas, ada beberapa versi RSS, dan bahkan ada kelompok membuat format baru Atom yang juga telah diadopsi oleh banyak situs. Tapi pemakai RSS tidak perlu bingung, para pembuat program pengumpul sindikasi biasanya bisa mengenali kedua format tersebut, bahkan masih menyediakan pembaca untuk format yang lama.

Definition

2008-04-15T23:19:00.000-07:00

RSS adalah sebuah file berformat XML untuk sindikasi yang telah digunakan (diantaranya dan kebanyakan) situs web berita dan weblog. Singkatan ini biasanya mengarah ke beberapa protokol:
Rich Site Summary (RSS 0.91)
RDF Site Summary (RSS 0.9 and 1.0)
Really Simple Syndication (RSS 2.0)

Teknologi yang dibangun dengan RSS mengijinkan kita untuk berlangganan kepada situs web yang menyediakan umpan (feed) RSS, biasanya situs web yang isinya selalu diganti secara reguler. Untuk memanfaatkan teknologi ini kita membutuhkan layanan pengumpul. Pengumpul bisa dibayangkan sebagai kotak surat pribadi. Kita kemudian dapat mendaftar ke situs yang ingin kita tahu perubahannya. Namun, berbeda dengan langganan koran atau majalah, untuk berlangganan RSS tidak diperlukan biaya, gratis. Tapi, kita biasanya hanya mendapatkan satu baris atau sebuah pengantar dari isi situs berikut alamat terkait untuk membaca isi lengkap artikelnya.
