What is RSS?
In a world heaving under the weight of billions of web pages, keeping up to date with the information you want can be a drag. Wouldn't it be better to have the latest news and features delivered directly to you, rather than clicking from site to site? Well now you can, thanks to a very clever service, RSS. There is some discussion as to what RSS stands for, but the majority plump for 'Really Simple Syndication'. Put plainly, it allows you to identify the content you like and have it delivered directly to you. It takes the hassle out of staying up-to-date, by showing you the very latest information that you are interested in.

How do I start using RSS feeds?
In general, the first thing you need is something called a news reader. There are many different versions, some of which are accessed using a browser, and some of which are downloadable applications. All allow you to display and subscribe to the RSS feeds you want. Once you have chosen a news reader, all you have to do is to decide what content you want.

An RSS feed, as viewed in Mozilla Thunderbird - RSS is viewed in a similar way to email, but the news story is loaded as a web page.You can subscribe to the feed in various ways, including by dragging the URL of the RSS feed into your news reader (such as Mozilla Thunderbird, pictured right)or by cutting and pasting the same URL into a new feed in your news reader. Some browsers, including Firefox, Opera and Safari, have functionality which automatically picks up RSS feeds for you. For more details on these, please check their websites.

How can I embed an RSS feed into my own website?
There are a variety of ways to do this, most of which require a reasonable understanding of HTML and web design.
