The Skinny On RSS

  • Seems like RSS has been all the rage for quite some time now. I've never really spent the time investigating how many sites syndicate content with it, or what you can do with the feeds. It is a very simple concept that makes sense for those that have a number of sites on the 'net that they frequent, which also have constantly updated content. RSS is an XML-based concept which publishes the latest updated news items or content from a site. Using an application to aggregate all of these feeds allows you to get a snapshot of what's happening on multiple sites more quickly than having to visit each one individually.
  • If you don't have a browser plug-in or application that does this, grab one, or surf over to BlogLines -- a free site (including the obligatory interspersed advertising), which forces you to register, but then subscribe to RSS feeds which it then displays for you.
