What is RSS?

RSS stands for "Really Simple Syndication." It's a format that web sites and blogs use to syndicate content via news aggregation tools and services like My Yahoo!. Syndication benefits users -- instead of visiting multiple web sites to see what's new, they can simply scan headlines or brief article summaries and click to read the full text. "Really simple" refers to how easy it is for publishers to make their content available to readers in this format.

What is a RSS Agregator

RSS/News Aggregators (also called Readers) will download and display RSS feeds for you. A number of free and commercial News Aggregators are available for download.

Many aggregators are separate, "stand-alone" programs; other services will let you add RSS feeds to a Web page. Yahoo! users can add RSS feeds to your My Yahoo! page; to make this easier, you can click on the "Add to My Yahoo!" button to the right of each link above.

Some Popular RSS Readers:

Feed Demon - Windows

NetNewsWire - Mac OS X

AmphetaDesk - Linux, Windows and Macintosh
