What is RSS?

RSS (Really Simple Syndication) is a popular technology employed by websites and weblogs to push headlines and summaries of content directly to users via dedicated RSS readers or web-based services like Google Reader. Also known as web feeds, it saves the user from having to make daily trips to numerous websites for fresh content that is of interest to him.

How to set up?

Each web feed will have its own URL which is usually embedded in the orange-coloured icon. To copy the link, right click on the icon and select "Copy Shortcut" (Internet Explorer) or "Copy Link Location" (Mozilla Firefox). Paste this information into the URL field of your RSS reader.
