RSS Feeds

What is RSS, and why is it so cool?

In short, it's a way to make the world wide web come to you, on demand, so that you can get more done, with less work and less clutter. RSS (Really Simple Syndication) is a specially formatted webpage that allows you subscribe to many websites and blogs. The advantage are:

  • You can then easily and quickly see updates to any of these websites at any time, without having to go there and visit them.
  • You can subscribe to 1 or 100 RSS feeds, and they all appear in a single location such as in Internet Explorer or Firefox, so that you don't have to visit the same 1 or 100 different sites every time you want ro revisit them.
  • If you prefer, even the home pages of popular sites like Google, Yahoo, and MSN all let you use them to build your own RSS reading portal in a matter of seconds, containing your favorite RSS feeds. Now you have a homepage with up-to-date snippets from all your favorite sites.
  • It's better than email because RSS only shows the current information, and does not clutter your inbox full of unwanted and quickly outdated emails.
  • You may notice that RSS is very popular for news sites like CNN, most any blog, as well as big sites like Ebay and Amazon.
