# Browse and subscribe to streams
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
On Zulip, users primarily communicate with each other by sending messages
 | 
			
		||||
to streams, which are similar to conversation threads.  New
 | 
			
		||||
users are automatically subscribed to the organization's default
 | 
			
		||||
streams; however, users may want to subscribe to additional streams or
 | 
			
		||||
browse the list of streams that they subscribe to.
 | 
			
		||||
Most communication in Zulip happens in streams.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
## Browse streams
 |

 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
1. Click the cog (<i class="icon-vector-cog"></i>) icon next to **Streams**
 | 
			
		||||
in the left sidebar. A tooltip labeled **Subscribe, add, or
 | 
			
		||||
configure streams** will appear upon hovering above the cog.
 | 
			
		||||
1. Scroll through the streams on the left. You can also **filter** by stream
 | 
			
		||||
   name or description.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
    
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
2. After clicking the cog (<i class="icon-vector-cog"></i>) icon, the
 | 
			
		||||
[Streams](/#streams) page will now appear, showing all streams
 | 
			
		||||
that you've subscribed to by default.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
    
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
    Here, you can explore all the public streams in the organization.
 | 
			
		||||
You can also [create a new stream](create-a-stream) by clicking the plus

## Subscribing to streams
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
Users can choose to subscribe to any public stream in the organization.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
### Subscribing when a stream is created
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
When users create a public stream, they can choose to alert all users
 | 
			
		||||
in the organization about their stream's creation.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
Thus, you may be notified about the stream's creation with a message
 | 
			
		||||
sent by the notification bot such as the one in the
 | 
			
		||||
following image.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||

 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
The message will present to you the option of subscribing to the stream,
 | 
			
		||||
and you can do so by simply clicking **Subscribe to 'stream name'**
 | 
			
		||||
button.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
### Subscribing later
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
However, if you were not notified about the stream's creation,
 | 
			
		||||
you can subscribe to a stream by navigating to the
 | 
			
		||||
[Streams](/#streams) page.
 | 
			
		||||

		||||
{!subscriptions.md!}
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
2. {!all-streams.md!}
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
3. Click on the area to the left of the stream that you would like to
 | 
			
		||||
subscribe to.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
    
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
    A green checkmark will appear next to the stream that you've just
 | 
			
		||||
subscribed to, and you will now be able to read and send messages in
 | 
			
		||||
that stream.
 | 
			
		||||
