    An RSS feed is kinda like a newsletter that instead of you needing everyones email address so you can send it to them, they all just need the address to your RSS feed so they can subscribe to it and get the updates when they want them.

    I created a help page about RSS which covers the technology and links to a range of software. You use your Blog and feed this as a RSS feed as well. Need support, post here and I will try to help. I cannot post the link yet as I am new.

    (Really Simple Syndication) A format for notifying new content at a website; the initials originally stood for Rich Site Summary. RSS defines rules for listing information about new content added to a website, such as the title, link and a short description (or in some cases the full body of the content), which the site publishes as an XML file at a specific URL -- in effect, a web service. This file, often called a newsfeed, can then be read and combined with feeds from other sites by news aggregators, which display the consolidated information either on a user's desktop or on a website. RSS is widely used both by news sites and by weblogs
