What is RSS?

What the heck is RSS?

Newcomers to the blogosphere probably ask this question. And let me help you answer that question!

Here is a quote from the Wikipedia about RSS:

RSS (which, in its latest format, stands for “Really Simple Syndication”) is a family of web feed formats used to publish frequently updated content such as blog entries, news headlines or podcasts. An RSS document, which is called a “feed”, “web feed”, or “channel”, contains either a summary of content from an associated web site or the full text. RSS makes it possible for people to keep up with their favorite web sites in an automated manner that’s easier than checking them manually.
