Notification via RSS -- Saving Search Results
SAMHDA is moving to a model in which RSS replaces our traditional notification services. RSS is a broad technological standard, upon which good software is being written. It provides a robust, flexible solution to the problem of notification, and it enables users to aggregate notifications from multiple Web sites with their own tools.
RSS on our site enables you to use any RSS Browser (such as Google Reader or Yahoo) to receive custom-created notifications, whether they be as broad as 'any new studies' or as narrow as searches that match a specific query. For example, you could create a notification that would email you when SAMHDA releases a study that's flagged as having Michigan data and is related to heroin use.
