Frequent Questions and Answers
-
What is RSS?
RSS stands for Really Simple Syndication. The idea behind this syndication is straightforward, easy checking of Web updates. If you want to keep up with multiple Web sites, blogs and news sites every day, it's no good to have to check back periodically and scroll down the page until you can figure out where you left off. RSS brings those blog entries and news stories to you, notifying you whenever there's something new to read on one of those Web sites. In fact, RSS provides you with the new material so that you don't have to actually visit the Web site.
RSS Feeds are often indicated by links that say "RSS," "Syndicate this site" or a square orange button with the text XML within it.
