What is RSS?

RSS (Really Simple Syndication) is a simple and effective way to keep updated automatically on your favourite website or websites. The traditional way is to log on to your favourite site such as bbc.co.uk and then access the latest news looking at a variety of pages. But with RSS this is done for you through a single source - an RSS reader.
What is an RSS Reader?
There are a number of RSS readers available for download on the web or for a free web-based subscription. The reader allows the user to view the RSS feed from the respective website. OneStopClick have tested the RSS feeds not only through browsers such as Firefox but also the feedreader and rssreader readers. |
