What is RSS?
As defined by Wikipedia, RSS (acronymic for Really Simple Syndication) is "a group of XML based web-content distribution and republication (Web syndication) formats primarily used by news sites and weblogs (blogs)." Essentially, an RSS feed is a hosted XML file from which your RSS newsreader pulls headlines, URLs, and other content as it is updated.

How does it work?
To read RSS feeds, you will need some software on your computer (an RSS reader client) or access to a Web site that offers the same functionality. To "subscribe" to a feed, simply right-click the related  graphic and click Copy Link Location or Copy Shortcut, then paste it into your RSS reader. Alternatively for users of free Web-based services Bloglines, My Yahoo, and Pluck, simply click the appropriate button to add the feed to your account.
