RSS, or Really Simple Syndication, is a technology that delivers web content directly to an RSS feed reader or a web browser’s RSS bookmark. RSS feeds contain short descriptions and link to longer articles, reports or blog entries. Once you subscribe to an RSS feed, new content is updated in your feed reader or web browser bookmark automatically.

To use RSS feeds, you need to have an account with an online RSS reader (like Bloglines, NewsGator or Google Reader), or install a desktop RSS reader (like FeedReader) on your computer or use a browser that supports RSS feeds. Next, copy the feed address (URL) into a feed reader or create an RSS bookmark with a browser that is RSS compatible (like Firefox or Internet Explorer 7).

Another option is to use an RSS bookmark (also called a live bookmark). RSS bookmarks display feeds in the Firefox web browser as a folder of bookmarks. Internet Explorer 7 has a similar feature.
