what are rss feeds?
Depending on whom you ask, the acronym RSS stands for "Really Simple Syndication," "Rich Site Summary," or any of a handful of other terms. It's an increasingly popular way for websites to alert regular users to new distributing content—and for users to access that content. An "RSS feed" is a dynamically updated summary of a website's offerings. Whenever an RSS-enabled site adds new content—articles, blog posts, videos, or anything else—the content can automatically be added to the site's feed or feeds. By using an RSS reader (see below) to subscribe to the feeds from your favorite sites, you'll know immediately whenever new articles, blog posts, and other things are posted to those sites. An RSS feed is a site's syndicated content feed that you can subscribe to, using a news reader (also known as an aggregator). Syndication means you don't have to visit each site individually to see what's new—you simply scan headlines, brief article summaries, or forum posts from your subscribed feeds and click to read the full text. That's the "really simple" part.
why subscribe to our rss?
A feed (also known as an RSS feed) is a listing of a Web site's content. It is updated whenever new content is published to the site. You can "subscribe" to feeds, which means Web sites download lists of stories, blog items, or forums posts and present them to you in your feed reader. A feed might contain article summaries or feature headlines. All news feeds will have a link back to the Web site, so if you see a headline or story you like, you can click on the link and be taken to the Web site to read it.
what is an rss aggregator/rss reader?
To use RSS, you will need an RSS reader (also known as an RSS aggregator). The reader provides a consolidated view of your subscribed content in a single browser display or desktop application.
There are many readers available and most are free. Some popular readers include My Yahoo!, Google Reader, Newsgator, Rojo, Pluck, and Bloglines. You can download a news reader that displays RSS feeds from the Web sites you select, or you can use a Web-based news reader and view RSS feeds directly on your personal page.
