What is RSS?
A "feed" is a summary of web content that’s updated on a regular basis. The feed format that we use is Really Simple Syndication (RSS) 2.0.
When you get a feed, you’ll see a summary or headline view that lets you quickly scan recent content changes. The headlines are links which you can click to read the entire article.
