toc =RSS Overview=

Here is how RSS is explained on Wikipedia.

"**RSS** is a family of [|web feed] formats used to publish frequently updated content such as [|blog] entries, news headlines or [|podcasts]. An RSS document, which is called a "feed," "web feed," or "channel," contains either a summary of content from an associated web site or the full text. RSS makes it possible for people to keep up with their favorite web sites in an automated manner that's easier than checking them manually. RSS content can be read using [|software] called a "feed reader" or an "[|aggregator]." The user subscribes to a feed by entering the feed's link into the reader or by clicking an RSS icon in a browser that initiates the subscription process. The reader checks the user's subscribed feeds regularly for new content, downloading any updates that it finds."

RSS stands for Really Simply Syndication or Rich Site Summary.
