What is rss feed ?

RSS stands for really simple syndicate.RSS is a technology that is being used by millions of web users around the world to keep track of their favorite websites.
In the earlier days (and even now) we used to bookmark our favourite websites so that we could return to them in one click instead of typing in the entire address and also in order to keep ourselves updated with the changes in these websites.
Having bookmarks can sometimes get tricky as having too many of them can lead to confusion and you also miss the information if you forget to check them.
All this changes when you start using rss feed - RSS flips things around a little
and is a technology that provides you with a method of getting relevant and up to date information sent to you for you to read in your own time. It saves you time and helps you to get the information you want quickly after it was published.
How to use rss ?
If you want to get into the habit of reading sited through rss then the first thing that you need is a rss reader.
I am not very technically savvy but a good place to start is with a couple of free and easy to use web based ones like Google Reader and Bloglines .
Both of these feed readers work
a little like email. As you subscribe to feeds you’ll see that unread entries from the sites you’re tracking will be marked as bold. As you click on them you’ll see the latest update and can
read it right there in the feed
reader. You are given the option
to click through to the actual site
or move onto the next unread
item – marking the last one as
‘read’.
So what are you waiting for just go and try it out.
