How to subscribe to Jens' z/VSE Blog via RSS

  
In this article I am going to explain how to setup your personal blogs RSS feed in your IBM Community profile to follow my z/VSE Blog using a feed reader of your choice.
If you do not know what a feed reader is and what it can do for you, I recommend to have a look at the respective Wikipedia article. There are web-based feed readers as well as apps for workstations, smartphones, and tablets.

  1. Register for an IBM Community account, if you have not already done so, and sign in: either go to the IBM Community website at https://community.ibm.com/ and click on the blue "Join / sign up" button or on any IBM Community page click on the profile icon in the top-right and select "Sign In".
