WHAT IS RSS?
RSS stands for Really Simple Syndication and it’s a convenient way to keep up with your favorite news and information. Using RSS, you can gather new content from a variety of sites and view it all in one convenient location. To view RSS content you need an RSS newsreader (also called an aggregator) such as MyYahoo!
‘Really Simple Syndication’ (or RSS) is a complicated term for a simple system, which allows you to automatically get the headlines from a website and display them on a platform local to you. That means you can see the headlines from all of your favourite websites in a single place on your computer, without having to actually visit each site. Millions of people around the world already use this feature. And new developments in 2007 – such as the launch of Microsoft’s next version of Windows with a built-in RSS reader – will see it becoming even more important. It’s simple to get an RSS feed from any section of this website. Just click on the orange RSS button on the left-hand side of any web page. Then pick the site and the section you want feeds from, and copy and paste that information into your RSS reader.
