I think worth if you could do a little bit of reading to enhance your understanding about RSS. Don't worry, I've just created a webpage full of archived articles from my own learning about RSS. Feel free to visit and pick related articles that will answer your question. Best part of it, Google also recommending other sites that can help you more in learning. Visit them today... Wish you all the best!

Answer 2

RSS stands for Really Simple Syndication. Many websites add new stories on a regular basis. A website can setup a RSS feed. A RSS feed lists the titles of all new stories with a short summary of those articles. People can then subscribe to the RSS feed and be alerted to any new stories without having to actually visiting the website(s). To subscribe to and display RSS feeds, you need to use a RSS reader, which there are many.

Answer 3

RSS is a family of web feed formats used to publish frequently updated digital content, such as blogs, news feeds or podcasts.

Users of RSS content use programs called feed 'readers' or 'aggregators': the user 'subscribes' to a feed by supplying to their reader a link to the feed; the reader can then check the user's subscribed feeds to see if any of those feeds have new content since the last time it checked, and if so, retrieve that content and present it to the user.

The initials "RSS" are variously used to refer to the following standards:

* Really Simple Syndication (RSS 2.0)
* Rich Site Summary (RSS 0.91, RSS 1.0)
* RDF Site Summary (RSS 0.9 and 1.0)

RSS formats are specified in XML (a generic specification for data formats). RSS delivers its information as an XML file called an "RSS feed", "webfeed", "RSS stream", or "RSS channel"
