what is RSS?

Answer 1

RSS is a format for sharing content among different websites. Sites can syndicate “feeds” (content) and Internet users can use an application called an RSS reader or aggregator to download feeds. There are many such readers available, most at no cost. To explain the difference between RSS and email, think of email is a push technology. You have to wait until the email is sent before receiving it. On the other hand, RSS is pull technology. The RSS reader constantly scans each of the feeds to which you have subscribed looking for new information. Once found, the reader notifies you and captures that information for viewing inside the application.

Answer 2

RSS is a standard format for syndicating content on the Internet. The content can be anything! Often information contained in an RSS feed is syndicated on other sites which expands its reach.

Website visitors love RSS because they choose which feeds they wish to subscribe to, if at any point they are unhapy with the content contained in the RSS feed they simply unsubscribe and no longer receive notification of feed updates.

RSS is really a win, win for both subscribers and publishers.

In order to get a better understanding of how RSS works download an RSS reader or use a web aggregator and subscribe to an RSS feed (they are usually indicated by a small orange icon).
