    Website content

    RSS is a family of Web feed formats used to publish frequently updated works – such as blog entries, news headlines, audio, and video – in a standardized format. An RSS document (which is called a “feed”, “web feed”, or “channel”) includes full or summarized text, plus metadata such as publishing dates and authorship. Web feeds benefit publishers by letting them syndicate content quickly and automatically. They benefit readers who want to subscribe to timely updates from favored websites or to aggregate feeds from many sites into one place.

    RSS is a family of Web feed formats used to publish frequently updated works – such as blog entries, news headlines, audio, and video – in a standardized format.[2] An RSS document (which is called a “feed”, “web feed”,[3] or “channel”) includes full or summarized text, plus metadata such as publishing dates and authorship. In other words it is kind of like having a paper delivered everyday or when news breaks. It is only as cool as the site you get it from. It can be very useful. You can keep track of sports, news, changes in a web site, or just about anything you can think of. For instance I get an RSS feed that sends me how to’s on MS Excl! Yes most of them are safe!

    RSS = Really Simple Syndication

    Yes, you will need to subscribe to an RSS reader. However, you already have one in MyYahoo. If you have not constructed your own MyYahoo page, just follow the instructions. This is the reader I use. Yes, it’s safe, cool AND worth it!

    The basic idea is that news sites in particular are constantly being updated. By using an RSS feed, all the new info gets sent automatically to your RSS Reader, The benefit (for me anyway) is that I need not go visit every news site I use for updates. I just open my “MyYahoo” page and there it all is!

    Here are some sites that I found very helpful in understanding the concept:
