Below is a list of most of the news (or "RSS") feeds that 1012Corridor.com has to offer. These feeds are automatically updated when we make updates to the site. To find out more about 1012Corridor.com's news feeds, read the FAQ below.
Depending on whom you ask, RSS stands for "Rich Site Summary", "RDF Site Summary", "Really Simple Syndication." However, the meaning of the acronym is not what's important; what is important is that RSS -- whatever it stands for -- is the technology that allows you to subscribe to a syndicated news feed you read in a news reader.
A news feed -- also known as an RSS feed -- is simply a different way of looking at a Web site's contents. It is updated whenever new content is published to the site. News feeds are not designed to be read in your Web browser; you will need a news reader to subscribe to a feed. The news reader will show you a list of the new content on the site. Each news feed has links back the site, so if you see a story or event you're interested in, you can click back to the site to read the expanded information. Note that there's nothing specific to 1012Corridor.com about news feeds; you'll be able to use your newsreader to subscribe to feeds offered by thousands of other sites.
A news reader is a computer program that you use to read your subscribed feeds. It is to news feeds what a program like Hotmail or Outlook is to e-mail.
There are a wide variety of news readers available. We suggest Bloglines.com (web-based; for all computers), Feed Demon (Windows), or NetNewsWire (Macintosh).
If you read lots of Web sites on a daily basis, or if you read many weblogs, a news reader can save you time. Instead of visiting each site and trying to determine what's new, a newsreader will alert you to new content as soon as it becomes available.
If you find yourself visiting the same site(s) multiple times each week or each day, we highly recommend checking out a news reader.
To access the 1012Corridor.com news feed, follow these instructions.

“My hometown is very special to me. My father was mayor of this city for 17 years, and the first place I would recommend to anyone visiting Slidell is actually a combination of three places that are right next to each other, and that were part of the legacy he built in Slidell.
