An RSS feed is a file that contains a summary of updates from a website, often in the form of a list of articles with links. RSS stands for Really Simple Syndication, and it offers an easy way to stay up to date on new content from websites you care about.
Whats an RSS feed and how do I use it?
An RSS feed takes the headlines, summaries, and update notices, and then links back to articles on your favorite websites page. This content is distributed in real time, so that the top results on the RSS feed are always the latest published content for a website.
RSS works by having the Web site author maintain a list of notifications on their Web site in a standard way. Special computer programs called RSS aggregators have been developed that automatically access the RSS feeds of Web sites you care about on your behalf and organize the results for you.
