What is it?
RSS
RSS (Rich Site Summary or Really SImple Syndication) is simply a Web-based newsreader-style way of keeping track of new content from some of your favorite sites. Using special reader plug-ins (you'll have to download one) you can view an aggregation of headlines and blurbs from dozens of different Websites. You add these Websites as channels. Every headline, in every channel, is linked back to full article on the originating site.
More details:
Here's a primer on RSS with reviews of popular RSS readers and A history of RSS.
How to I read these feeds?
