What is RSS?
RSS is short for Really Simple Syndication and is a way for websites to publish and people to subscribe to news and items of interest. A great tutorial on RSS is available here (but it's a bit techy). To use RSS, you'll need a newsreader and to subscribe to the RSS feeds that interest you.
