RSS stands for Really Simple Syndication. When you subscribe to an RSS Feed, you will be updated when new content is published on the website it’s linked to.
How do I use feeds?
In general, the first thing you need is something called a feed/news reader. This is a piece of software that checks the feeds and lets you read any new articles that have been added. There are many different versions, some of which are accessed using a browser, and some of which are downloadable applications.
Browser-based feed readers let you catch up with your RSS feed subscriptions from any computer, whereas downloadable applications let you store them on your main computer, in the same way that you either download your e-mail using Outlook, or keep it on a web-based service like Hotmail.
For example, if you would like the latest from Woody’s Moos page, simply click the Subscribe button and choose a reader. That’s all!
