Our first-ever marine podcast opens with a clip courtesy of Barry Skinstad who films two shark species – blues and makos – along the Cape Coast of South Africa, along with some very nervous white-chinned petrels!

Then it's off to the Knysna Lagoon in South Africa's Eastern Cape province, where Barry again does film duty to bring us enchanting footage of the delicate creatures that inhabit this world-famous estuary, from the sea hare to the seahorse.

In Sodwana Bay, KwaZulu-Natal, there’s an abundance of marine life and Grant Brokensha has captured some of the most interesting species to share with us, including round ribbontail rays, an octopus and beautiful but venomous devil firefish.

What is RSS?

RSS is an acronym for Really Simple Syndication.

RSS makes it possible for you to keep up with all changes and stories on your favourite websites without having to visit each site, because it automatically pushes content to you through a feed that is regularly updated. And what you don't want, you can simply ignore.

What do I need?

First you will need a RSS or feed reader. This is often a downloadable program, but some internet browsers, especially if they are the latest versions, have an RSS reader function built in. This is a tool that collates your preferred information, including text, video and audio, from lots of websites into one page or "feed".

Here are some popular readers you can download if you like:

Your reader checks your subscribed feeds regularly for new content, downloading any updates that it finds.

How do I do it?

You subscribe to a feed by entering the feed's link into the reader, or by clicking the RSS icon of the content you want. The icon appears in the address bar of your browser on sites where feeds are available. Look at your address bar right now and you will see the RSS icon is lit. Clicking it will provide you with a list of RSS feeds.
