In a world bombarded with constant information and nonstop progress, it can feel impossible to stay on top of all the news, pop culture, or special interests you have.
RSS Feeds are your source for up-to-date information for the sites you want to hear about most. Having an RSS feed is like having a personal assistant
that is constantly doing research to update you on the most relevant information available. Once you have subscribed to an RSS feed, and have downloaded
a reader, you can rely on the feed to constantly connect to the site of interest and notify you of any updates or changes. RSS feeds are the best tool
to connect you to an ever-changing world of growing content.
An RSS feed stand for Rich Site Summary Feed and is sometimes referred to as a “Really Simple Syndication.” An RSS is a grouping of standard web feed formats
intended to update information as it is published. In other words, an RSS enables web publishers or sites to avoid the need to manually monitor a website
for new content. An RSS subscription to a site ensures that a browser is doing the monitoring for the user and will inform the user of any updates.
Furthermore, a browser can be designed in such a way that it will download any new data automatically. By using a standard XML file format, RSS feeds
are compatible with a variety of programs and interfaces. RSS greatly benefits those who regularly use the Internet by retrieving the most up-to-date
content from specific sites of interest, providing users an efficient way to stay informed. By not having to visit individual sites and sign up for
numerous newsletters or contact lists, RSS feeds save money and permit privacy.
In order to read a selected RSS feed, you will need to have Feed Reader or News Aggregator software. There are many of these available depending upon which
type of computer software you are using. Then it is as easy as setting up your Feed Reader to check those sites you would like to follow. Blogs, news
providers, or other publishers commonly will offer their content to users in the form of an RSS Feed. Some RSS services even automatically generate
an email to a user to update them on any changes. In short, RSS Feeds keep you in the loop with information from your favorite sources with minimal
effort.
