Staying up-to-date effectively with RSS.

What is RSS?

RSS (Really Simple Syndication) is a method of delivering news and updated content from websites. RSS feed delivers information in a format called XML which can be read by a service or program called an 'aggregator' or 'reader'. By using an aggregator, you can have news and updates from multiple sources delivered to a single place on the Web or on your desktop. Two free, easy to use aggregators are NewsGator and Bloglines. Many others are also available.
