Another option, instead of receiving E-Mail alerts using the "Watch" feature, is to set up RSS (Really Simple Syndication) Feeds for particular spaces of interest. For many advanced users, RSS is a cleaner way to stay abreast of changes to a Wiki environment. In this mini-tutorial, we will be using what Confluence calls the "RSS Feed Builder."

Warning

It is beyond the scope of this tutorial to discuss various RSS Readers and their capabilities/limitations; however, it is IMPORTANT to note that Confluence RSS Feeds require authentication (Username/Password), so you may need to enter your Confluence Wiki credentials into your RSS Reader. In Microsoft Outlook, that is handled under Advanced RSS options. Some RSS Readers do not support authentication (e.g., Google Reader), so please be sure to verify that capability before proceeding. For additional information about RSS, see this Wikipedia page.
