RSS - Really Simple Syndication
RSS is an acronym, which stands for Really Simple Syndication and sometimes it is also referred to as Rich Site Summary. It is essentially a tool you can use to have news related headlines and announcements, delivered directly to you, rather than having to go look for it. RSS makes use of a certain code that constantly scans a website for updated content and then broadcasts those updates to all subscribers through a feed. These RSS feeds will contain the Date, Title, a Brief Description of the content and a Link to click on to read more of the article.
More and more sites are now offering RSS feeds, which can be identified by a small orange button that says either or - However, if you click one of these links, you will most likely get a page full of code in your browser

RSS are feeds to which our computer links in the background when connected to internet and sends us information whenever their is some new content on the site for which the feed is subscribed. Whenever we connect to the internet our browser ( IE explorer ) connects to that site and looks out for new content and shows that to us. For example: If you subscribed to a feed of a games site then you will get to know when a new game is released.
