What is RSS Feed and how to use it?

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.

RSS solves a problem for people who regularly use the web. It allows you to easily stay informed by retrieving 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.

A variety of RSS Readers are available for different platforms. Some popular feed readers include Amphetadesk External website that opens in a new window (Windows, Linux, Mac), FeedReader External website that opens in a new window (Windows), and NewsGator External website that opens in a new window (Windows - integrates with Outlook). There are also a number of web-based feed readers available. My Yahoo External website that opens in a new window, Bloglines External website that opens in a new window, and Google Reader External website that opens in a new window are popular web-based feed readers.

Once you have your Feed Reader, it is 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.
