RSS

Really Simple Syndication information

What is RSS?

RSS is a format for syndicating news and the content of news-like sites, including major news sites like Wired, news-oriented community sites like Slashdot, and personal weblogs.

But it's not just for news. Pretty much anything that can be broken down into discrete items can be syndicated via RSS: the "recent changes" page of a wiki, a changelog of CVS checkins, even the revision history of a book.

Once information about each item is in RSS format, an RSS-aware program can check the feed for changes and react to the changes in an appropriate way. More information.
