What is RSS?
Subscribing to an RSS feed is an easy way for you to keep up to date with new information on a website. Instead of having to visit the site, once you have subscribed to an RSS feed, updates will automatically be delivered to you.
How can I subscribe to an RSS feed?
To receive RSS feeds you need to install an RSS reader onto your computer (many are free to download) or sign-up to a web-based aggregator service available via your browser.
There are a variety of readers and aggregator services available, the dmoz open directory project website has an extensive list.
Some browsers also provide support for reading RSS feeds, or have extensions that you can download, eg Firefox.
