What the hell is RSS?

Question

Accepted Answer

If this is really the first time you are reading about RSS, we should start from the beginning. Literally, RSS is an acronym that stands for “Rich Site Summary,” but more often for “Really Simple Syndication.” Sounds not so simple, but it honestly is! RSS is a method or way of receiving information and updates from a website. Remember those days when newspapers were delivered to your house by a postman every morning? Basically, it works in kinda the same way. Instead of having to look through a site, searching for what interests you, you receive that updated information from the website as soon as it’s published. Sounds cool, right? (Want a more serious description? Check Wikipedia’s page). To subscribe to RSS feeds, you need to use an RSS reader or an e-mail client that includes an RSS option.
