RSS stands for "Really Simple Syndication." RSS is a new way to publish information online, through "RSS Feeds". Web coding, called XML, displays headlines and information on another page or "RSS Reader". This is a simple way to syndicate content.

To receive RSS feeds, you need a "feed reader", such as Google Reader or Feedburner. Once you have obtained a feed reader, subscribe to the RSS feed. Most Web sites that publish an RSS feed will display a tiny orange box or button labeled "RSS" or "XML." Click the button and your Web browser will display a page of cryptic code. Copy the Web "address" or URL of that page and plug it into your feed reader. The software will then automatically retrieve and display that site's latest information.
