What The Heck is All This Talk About RSS, Atom, XML, and Syndication About?


Another good question my friend!

RSS stands for "Really simple syndication" or "Rich site syndication". It is a name for news feeds.

This is a relatively new way of easily sharing headlines and information between websites. This is quickly becoming a very popular method to use and is a very fast growing trend.

XML and Atom are simply the format that RSS feeds are found in.

As a reader you can easily view these headlines on your "My Yahoo" page once you click on the "My Yahoo" button on my blog page.

If you don't use Yahoo, then you can easily view RSS feeds through any newsreader. Below I have listed a few FREE newsreaders that you can download and start using.

Pluck (integrates with Internet Explorer)
Feed Reader
Albion

As a website owner, you can use news feeds (RSS) to keep your site's content fresh and informative, which your readers and the search engine bots will love!
