What is RSS?
RSS (Rich Site Summary) is a format for delivering regularly changing web content. Many news-related sites, weblogs and
other online publishers syndicate their content as an RSS Feed to whoever wants it.
The benefits of RSS?
RSS solves a problem for people who regularly use the web. It allows you to easily stay informed by retrieving summaries
of the latest content from the sites you are interested in. You save time by not needing to visit each site individually.
You ensure your privacy, by not needing to join each site's email newsletter. The number of sites offering RSS feeds is
growing rapidly and includes big names like Yahoo News and Amazon.com.
What do I need to do to read an RSS Feed?
A Feed Reader or News Aggregator software allow you to grab the RSS feeds from various sites and display them for you to
read and use.
A variety of RSS Readers are available for different platforms. Some popular feed readers include
Amphetadesk (Windows, Linux, Mac),
FeedReader (Windows), and
NewsGator (Windows - integrates with
Outlook).
Once you have your Feed Reader, it's a matter of finding
sites that
syndicate content and adding their RSS feed to the list of feeds your Feed Reader checks. Many sites display a small icon with
the acronyms RSS, XML or RDF to let you know a feed is available.
