What are feeds? I see "RSS", "XML", and "Atom" out there, but I don't know how I might use these links when I find them.
Feeds are a way for websites large and small to distribute their content well beyond just visitors using browsers. Feeds permit subscription to regular updates, delivered automatically via a web portal, news reader, or in some cases good old email. Feeds also make it possible for site content to be packaged into "widgets," "gadgets," mobile devices, and other bite-sized technologies that make it possible to display blogs, podcasts, and major news/sports/weather/whatever headlines just about anywhere.
Why is This a Good Thing?
Subscribing to feeds makes it possible to review a large amount of online content in a very short time. Feeds permit instant distribution of content and the ability to make it "subscribable." Advertising in feeds overcomes many of the shortcomings that traditional marketing channels encounter including spam filters, delayed distribution, search engine rankings, and general inbox noise.
How do I read feeds?
If you want to browse and subscribe to feeds, you have many choices. Today, there are more than 2,000 different feed reading applications, also known as "news aggregators" (for text, mostly) or "podcatchers" (for podcasts). There are even readers that work exclusively on mobile devices. Some require a small purchase price but are tops for ease-of-use and ship with dozens of feeds pre-loaded so you can explore the feed "universe" right away. Free readers are available as well; a search for "Feed reader" or "Feed aggregator" at popular search sites will yield many results. A handful of popular feed readers are listed at the bottom of this page. A typical interface for a feed reader will display your feeds and the number of new (unread) entries within each of those feeds. You can also organize your feeds into categories and even clip and save your favorite entries (with certain applications). If you prefer, you can use an online, web-based service to track and manage feeds. Online services give you the advantage of being able to access your feed updates anywhere you can find a web browser. Also, upgrades and new features are added automatically.

AlgaeVenture Systems, with its harvester technology, is in the process of determining what the industry needs in terms of processing capacity and equipment features. The needs may vary greatly depending on the specific system into which it will be integrated. We would appreciate your input by completing the Algae Harvester Survey and feel free to add any comments as appropriate.
You may either download the survey and return the completed form via fax (fax information is on the form), or you may submit the survey online.
One of our strongest cultural traits as a company is our ability to seize commercialization opportunities at every turn. So while we continue to make progress at realizing our ultimate goal of commercializing algae-to-oil on a grand scale, each component and piece of equipment we develop during this journey is being commercialized and produced to benefit other algae innovators.
We are already able to sell the following product:
AVS Harvester:
With our harvesting, dewatering, and drying technology and equipment we have broke through a barrier for economic viability of algae for fuel. This technology and equipment will sell all over the world for not only the algae industry but chemical, agricultural, food processing, pharmaceutical and other businesses that deal with getting something concentrated or out of water that is small.
Please contact an AlgaeVS team member for more information on pricing, delivery and support.
