RSS Feeds and More!

What are RSS feeds you say? No they are not implanted into your body for government control. They are not microchips that the government puts on dollar bills to see on what and where you spend them.

They do however "feed" you news. RSS stands for = Real Simple Syndication which means I guess that it's simple. Now how do you get ahold of an RSS? How do you go about reading news and from where?

Well most known newspaper, gaming, hardware, and software site have RSS feeds. When I mean news sites I mean The New York Post, USA Today and more. RSS is just a way for you to have only the news you ask for, syndicated to you.

You want the The Houston Chronicle no problem. The Sun Times for Britian sure. Newspaper from New Gali? Well why not.

Why an RSS, why did it come about? Well let's ask the real question is: How much is your time worth? An RSS feed let's you know that the websites you've subscribed to that it's been updated.

Now to the good part. Let's talk about subscribing to your favorite website. Now hop on several of your favorite website. Look around on the front page and you should a button that looks likes this: or this or even this .

There are many different way the button can look but it's the same icon or "rss" on it.

RSS can be read by a newsreader or a browser that supports RSS. Most blogs have RSS feeds you can subscribe to. I personally use Firefox since it supports RSS feeds in the browser itself.

Hopefully this has been informational to you as it has to me! :)
