Yes, sure! You can created and configure Spb Insight channels fed with RSS/Atom sources. To do so:
In Spb Insight channel view tap New.
In the channel adding dialog select the RSS/Atom feed URL option.
Provide the URL of your channel. If you don't know it, try to find it on the website of this
channel. Usually such websites give the URL for their RSS/Atom sources.
Type the channel name or just tap the Check and Get Name button. Spb Insight will check the URL
you provided and insert the channel name automatically.
Yes. Moreover, this is what we recommend you to do and this is the default program behavior. To view/change the
content location, go to the Options dialog and select the Content tab.
If you know a certain channel of your field of interest, you can just create a
new channel using its URL.
If you just want to check, what interesting can be found to read for you, you can
use the online catalog that provides thousands interesting channels. Just
select the Online Catalog option
when adding a new channel and you will be shown an up-to-date catalog of channels,
(you should be connected to be able to download the catalog). In this catalog you
will easily find a lot of channels dedicated to medicine, health and science.
And finally, you can use the search option when adding a new channel. Try to run
search by the word "health" or "medicine". You will be shown a lot of matching channels.
One of the ways to save traffiс on downloading channel content is turning off image downloading.
To do so:
Open Spb Insight options. Select the Content tab.
Tap the Default Channel Properties... button.
In the next dialog open the Updating tab and select the Do not download images check box.
If you still want to be able to view images in some certain channel you may change this channel
options not to obey the default channel properties and allow downloading images for it.
You don't have to input this data anywhere. Spb Insight takes the same network connections settings as
your Internet Explorer does. So if your Internet Explorer works, then Spb Insight will work, too.
Spb Insight Online Catalog provides you with a big and constantly growing number of channels. In order to
track the most interesting and the most popular channels, Spb gathers statistics about the channels you visit.
And basing on these statistics, channels get their rating. Therefore you will always be able to overview
the list of the most popular channels, which improves the usability of the online channel catalog.
It's up to you to allow or not allow Spb gather statistics about the channels you chose for yourself. You can do it
either when installing the application or by checking the corresponding program option.
