Can you tell me what this link on the Home Page means please? Have just clicked on it and the screen filled with obviously a lot of computer programmed jargon which my computer just showed it as it was. I can see that it is all sorts of data but how do you view it as an intelligible item?

This is an [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RSS]RSS/] feed for our market news (the daily ftse price etc that you see displayed on the homepage).
The RSS link is:
http://www.shareworld.co.uk/index.php/feeds/marketupdate.rss
most browsers - internet explorer, opera etc will read rss feeds automaticaly, but if your browser doesnt, you can download an RSS reader, for example:
http://download.cnet.com/eSobi/3000-2164_4-10707953.html
Basically what this will do is everytime we publish a new market update, your rss reader will automatically download it and display it for you to read.
There are loads of other uses - Google will read RSS feeds and use them to discover updated content, websites can also add an RSS feed to their site - so when the publisher uploads new content to the RSS feed, it can automatically be displayed on the third-parties website.
