RSS Feeds




RSS stands for Real Simple Syndication




"Also called web feeds, RSS is a content delivery vehicle. It is the format used when you want to syndicate news and other web content. When it distributes the content it is called a feed. You could think of RSS as your own personal wire service."


The photo on the right is a sample of my feed for this page. It keeps me informed of changes to this blog.




A really simple explination is that it is a free service that monitors blogs, websites, etc., for updated information. The latest news, a new blog, or new home page content. It is kind of like the ticker on the bottom of a news screen, as information is updated it shares the info.




Check out the following website for more detailed information:
