RSS is an acronym for Really Simple Syndication. RSS feeds are an
easy and efficient way to recieve notification when new information
is available in a specific area of interest. RSS feeds save time, allowing users to recieve notification only
when new content is available. Web site visitors choose the information
they wish to subscribe to and can unsubscribe from any feed at any
point. To subscribe to RSS feeds you will need an RSS feed reader (also called a news aggregator)
there are a number of RSS readers available. A short list is available
at http://www.rss-specifications.com/rss-software.htm RSS readers are simply programs that display the contents of an
RSS feed in an easy to read format. Once you have an RSS reader you simply click the icon or a link
to the RSS feed and paste it into your RSS reader. Some readers
will auto detect the precense of an RSS feed on a website and you
can optionally choose to subscribe.
