What is RSS?
RSS is an easy way for you to keep updated automatically on websites you like. Instead of having to go to websites to see if they've written a new article or feature, you can use RSS (slang defined as 'Really Simple Syndication') to get them to tell you every time they have something new.

How can I make use of RSS?
You need to get hold of a program called an RSS Reader or an aggregator. It will display RSS information feeds from all your chosen websites in one place.

Several free newsfeed readers are available including:

NetNewsWire - for the Mac
